Nd<strong>ray</strong>-Szab6[2] 1930, Bale [6] 1940.SourceNBS sample* The sample of calcium fluoridephosphate was prepared at NBS by J. H. deGroot.A mixture of calcium fluoride and tricalciumorthophosphate was heated in a covered platinumdish to 1250 °C. Spectrographic analysis showedthe following major impurities: 0.1 to 1.0 percenteach of magnesium and sodium; and 0.01 to 0.1percent each of aluminum, barium, germanium,iron, silicon, and strontium.Internal <strong>Standard</strong>,Tungsten, a =3. 1648 Ahkl Cu, 1.5405 A at 25 Cd/IA511 1.42653321. 4224844131. 40152
Calcium Fluoride Phosphate (fluorapatite), Ca5F(PO4) 3 (hexagonal)—ContinuedThe sample was colorless and optically negativewith the indices of refraction N0= 1.633 and N e= 1.628.The d-values of the three strongest lines are:2.800, 2.702, and 2.772 A.Structural data. Hentschel [1] in 1923 determined that fluorapatite has the space groupC§h-P6/m (No. 176) and 2[Ca5F(PO4 ) 3] per unitcell.The density of synthetic fluorapatite calculatedfrom the NBS lattice constants is 3.201 g/cm 3 at25 °C.Lattice constantsac1923193019311939194019411946195019521952195219591963Hentschel [1]— ______-___-___-„__-----_-Nd<strong>ray</strong>-Szab6 [2]. ._.._..._______.._..____..Mehmel[3]_. _______„.___.____._.___._____Thewlis, Clock, and Mur<strong>ray</strong> [5] ,...._ __._..Bale [6]_ -----_-_------__----------------Klement and Dihn [?]___„. ________________Beevers and Maclntyre [8]_ _ ___ -Wallaeys and Chaudron [9] _ _ _ _ _Brasseur [10]__ _ _______ ___ ______ _ _McConnell [ll]________.__________-___-___-Altschuler, Cisney and Barlow [12] _ _____Carobbi and Mazzi [13]National Bureau of <strong>Standard</strong>s synthetic sample described above.Sample from Durango, Mex, a _ _ _Sample from Llallagua, Bolivia. b -_ __ .. _A/9. 33\9. 439.399. 389.389. 399. 389. 399. 3509. 3649. 3959. 3869. 424*9. 36849. 39239. 3712A6. 836. 896. 896. 866. 886. 896. 896. 896. 8706. 8796. 8826.8786. 888*6. 8841 at 25 °C6. 8821 at 25 °C6. 8824 at 26 °C*The error in these values was ±0.0003.••b These samples were obtained from the National Museum; the number of the Mexican sample is 104021, of the Bolivian sample 103869. These cell constants were derived from powder diffraction measurements made at the same time as those on the synthetic sample.» This particular sample from Durango may not be typical because of its lanthanum content. Spectropraphic analysis showed 1 to 4 percent of lanthanumand 0.1 to 1.0 percent each of cerium and sodium as major impurities. The error on these lattice constants was ±0.0005.b Spectrographic analysis showed major impurities to be 0,1 to 1.0 percent of manganese and 0.01 to 0.1 percent each of iron and strontium.References[1] H.
