Chemical and Spectroscopic Characteristics of Synthetic K-H3O-Na Alunite Solid-Solutions
Abstract
We synthesized 16 K-H3O-Na alunites under a hydrothermal environment and characterized their chemical, Raman, and infrared spectral features. Raman data will be a good analog for identifying alunite-group minerals by future Raman payloads on Mars.
