Dissolution and alteration of Na-montmorillonite (Na-mon) under highly alkaline conditions have been studied by high resolution solid state27Al/29Si MAS and27Al 3Q MAS NMR. Six altered samples were prepared by treating Na-mon in a highly alkaline Ca(OH)2solution (0.01M: M=moldm−3) from 1week to 3months. The 3Q MAS NMR spectra of non-altered and altered samples indicated the existence of one octahedral Al site (AlVI) and two tetrahedral Al sites (AlaIV,AlbIV). The AlaIVand AlbIVsites were assigned to Q3(3Si) and Q4(4Si) units, respectively. The AlbIVsite of altered samples was ascribed to formation of analcime on the basis of powder X-ray diffraction patterns and27Al MAS NMR spectra. The average isotropic chemical shifts and the quadrupolar products remained constant before and after the alkaline treatment. The ratio of AlaIV/AlVIindicated that the tetrahedral Al is more easily dissolved than the octahedral one. Therefore, we proposed a model that octahedral sites of Na-mon are exposed due to partial removal of external tetrahedral sites.29Si MAS NMR spectra showed that tetrahedral sheets of the Na-mon mainly consist of Q3(0Al) and Q3(1Al) units, and that the estimated bond angles (Si–O–Si) and bond lengths (Si–Si) are not affected by alkaline alteration. Furthermore, the full widths at half-maximum (FWHMs) of29Si NMR peaks corresponding to Q3(0Al) and Q3(1Al) sites were constant before and after the highly alkaline treatment. These results suggest that the coordination structure around tetrahedral Si is not largely changed by the alkaline treatment.
