#sodium silicate
- Analcite — An older terminological or spelling variant contextually used for the mineral analcime (analcite), a hydrated sodium and aluminum silicate from the zeolite group. Structurally characterized by white, grey, or colorless isometric (icositetrahedral) crystals, this natural compound forms through hydrothermal processes in the cavities of basaltic magmatic rocks or as an authigenic mineral in some sedimentary rocks, studied in systematic mineralogy for its ion-exchange properties.
