DetailsThe metastable kyaniteandalusite equilibrium in the Al 2 SiO 5 system has been reversed at 700°, 750°, and 800°C at elevated water pressures, with a variety of natural and synthetic kyanites and andalusites as starting materials. Sillimanite, the stable form of Al 2 SiO 5 under these conditions, did not appear. The value of the transition pressure at 750°C is …

DetailsKyanite, andalusite, and sillimanite coexist in the center of the area. Near the triple point zone, isograds are controlled by topography: kyanite occurs along ridges, kyanite–andalusite on hillsides and kyanite–andalusite–sillimanite in valleys. The distribution of minerals fits a model of near-horizontal isotherms and isobars, with ...
DetailsKyanite and its related minerals are used to make a variety of refractory materials. Refractory materials are those that are resistant to very high temperatures. As a result, more than half of the kyanite consumed is used in refractories for the production of steel. Kyanite is also used to produce refractories for nonferrous (non-iron-bearing ...
DetailsUnlike kyanite and sillimanite, andalusite can be found in a variety of particle sizes. The more blocky structure of the andalusite is a noticeable differentiating factor (Figure 6). CONCLUSIONS. The expansion and mullitization of the various sillimanite group minerals in this study were examined and compared. Overall, kyanite …
DetailsPowder and single-crystal diffraction data measured from the three geologically important Al 2 SiO 5 polymorphs, kyanite, andalusite and sillimanite, over the last six decades have given varying accounts of each polymorph's thermal expansion, the scatter between and even within experimental datasets often being quite large. …
DetailsD.M. Carmichael examined thin sections of one particular metapelite that contains both kyanite and sillimanite. The rock shows no evidence that the sillimanite was forming directly from kyanite. Instead, examination of the rock in thin section shows that the kyanite has rounded edges and corners that could have formed as a result of dissolution.
DetailsKyanite in a muscovite–biotite schist. The four kyanite crystals are colorless, have high relief, and two have a strong cleavage parallel to their length. Relief is much higher than muscovite, which surrounds the kyanite. ... Sillimanite fibers (variety fibrolite), in a biotite–sillimanite–muscovite schist. Sillimanite is colorless, and ...
DetailsRocks containing three Al 2 SiO 5 polymorphs – andalusite (And), kyanite (Ky), and sillimanite (Sil) – represent disequilibrium resulting from polymorph instability driven by changing pressure–temperature (P–T) conditions during related or unrelated tectonometamorphic events. There are six possible crystallization sequences. The two …
DetailsReversal of the kyanite-sillimanite inversion has been accomplished hydrothermally at 750°C. The inversion pressure at 750°C is 8.1 ± 0.4 kilobars.

DetailsThe chemistry and the mineralogy of the three Al 2 O 3 ·SiO 2 sillimanite minerals (anadlusite, kyanite, and sillimanite) are described. Their P–T diagram is discussed. The structural differences among the three are reviewed, emphasizing the coordination of the Al 3+ cations that link the double octahedral chains within the structures. Their …
DetailsKyanite, andalusite, and sillimanite are anhydrous aluminosilicate minerals that have the same chemical formula, Al 2 SiO 5, but differ in crystal structure and physical properties.
DetailsTorsion experiments were performed on the Al 2 SiO 5 polymorphs in the sillimanite stability field to determine basic rheological characteristics and the effect of deformation on polymorphic transformation. The experiments resulted in extensive transformation of andalusite and kyanite to sillimanite. No transformation occurred during the hot-press …

DetailsThis crystallization sequence conflicts with the observation that kyanite-quartz veins post-date andalusite-sillimanite veins and at least one intrusive phase of a granite that produced a low-pressure-high-temperature contact aureole; these relationships imply a sequence of andalusite to sillimanite to kyanite.

DetailsAs with andalusite and kyanite, sillimanite is a feedstock mineral for conversion to mullite Al 6 Si 2 O 13 (see extended discussion in Andalusite, Applications chapter). It is considered the best raw material for manufacturing refractory bricks of 55 – 60% alumina. Its large-scale use is precluded, however, because of its cost.
