Abstract
Magic-angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR) spectroscopy provides important information on the composition and structure of phyllosilicates which is not often readily obtained by conventional analytical methods. 29Si and 27Al NMR analysis of phyllosilicates can allow accurate determination of tetrahedral Si/Al ratios and ordering arrangements, tetrahedral Al/octahedral Al ratios, crystal chemistry of mixed-layer illite/smectite and the presence of poorly crystalline Al- and Si-bearing minerals and amorphous phases. -from Authors
