Abstract/NotesSummaryThe morphologies of hydrothermally grown reedmergnerite crystals change systematically with time and rate of change of B, Si order. Three stages in this process are recognized: (1) Growth of well-faceted crystals. (2) Development of etching leading to the formation of irregular grains. (3) Modification of irregular grains to form rounded or ellipsoidal crystals. A solutionreprecipitation process is responsible for the morphological changes and the increase in degree of order of B and Si with time at constant temperature and pressure.
