germanium serpentine Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Description

The germanium serpentine, 3MgO·2GeO2·2H2O is formed easily from intimate mixtures of very fine MgO and the quartz form of GeO2 under conditions similar to those under which the silicon analogue grows. The decomposition temperature was found to be 520 ± 15°C at 10,000 psi. This phase gives a welldefined powder X-ray pattern not showing the diffuseness of the chrysotile pattern, and has a basal spacing of 7.47 ? and a mean refractive index for the basal section of 1.600.

Uses

These salts are rare in nature and are only used to obtain the oxide, GeO2, which is used in various electronic components manufactured in industry.
