Aluminium silicate is a type of fibrous material made of aluminium oxide and silicon dioxide, (such materials are also called aluminosilicate fibres). These are glassy solid solutions rather than chemical compounds. The compositions are often described in terms of % weight of alumina, Al 2 O 3 and silica, SiO 2. Temperature resistance increases ...
The aluminosilicate framework of LTA-type zeolite (left) and FAU-type zeolite (right). Vertices = Al or Si, oxygen atoms are not shown. Feldspar is a common tectosilicate aluminosilicate mineral made of potassium, sodium, and calcium cations surrounded by a negatively charged network of silicon, aluminium and oxygen atoms.

The chemical compound name is potassium aluminium silicate, and it is known as E number reference E555. It was the subject in 2018 of a Call for technical and toxicological data from the EFSA . [ 5 ]
In geology, sial is an antiquated [1] blended term for the composition of the upper layer of Earth's crust, namely rocks rich in aluminium silicate minerals. It is sometimes equated with the continental crust because it is absent in the wide oceanic basins, [2] but 'sial' is a geochemical term rather than a plate tectonic term. [3]
Fraipontite is a zinc aluminium silicate mineral with a formula of (Zn,Al) 3 (Si,Al) 2 O 5 (OH) 4. [2] [3] It is a member of the kaolinite-serpentine mineral group and occurs as an oxidation product of zinc deposits. It occurs with smithsonite, gebhardite, willemite, cerussite and sauconite. [2]
The Si-O-M linkage between the silicates and the metals are strong, polar-covalent bonds. Silicate anions ([SiO 2+n] 2n−) are invariably colorless, or when crushed to a fine powder, white. The colors of silicate minerals arise from the metal component, commonly iron. In most silicate minerals, silicon is tetrahedral, being surrounded by four ...
Pyrophyllite is a phyllosilicate mineral composed of aluminium silicate hydroxide: Al 2 Si 4 O 10 (OH) 2. It occurs in two forms ( habits ): crystalline folia and compact masses; distinct crystals are not known.
