Time series of powder XRD diffractograms and DRIFT spectra registered at 0, 1, 2, 6, 15, and 20 h for sauconite synthesis with 1.0 M succinate, pH0 9.0 at 90 °C. (A) XRD diffractogram. (B) DRIFT spectra including an inset with features at 20 h. (C) Time correlation of d 0 0 1 values for 2:1 sauconite (red solid triangle) in (A), TSA (black solid circle) in (A), and the area for C-H stretching (νC-H, teal solid diamond) integrated between 2937 and 2991 cm−1 in (B), after baseline correction with a two point algorithm.
