Original Abstract

This work describes the crystallization and subsequent decomposition processes of ternesite when fired in an open air system. The effects of temperature and sintering period on phase composition and crystallinity were assessed post-mortem in samples fired in platinum crucibles in a laboratory furnace. High temperature XRD was used for observing phase and crystallinity changes in situ. The results indicate that the temperature of 1150 degrees C is neither high enough for a full synthesis of ternesite of sufficient quality nor high enough for its decomposition. It appears that the temperature of ternesite decomposition in an open system is around 1250 degrees C. The crystallites grow very fast at the beginning, until the size of 160 nm above which the grow rate is decreasing.
