Abstract

A full structural description, including the adsorbed water molecules, of the zeolite goosecreekite CaAl2Si6O16·5H2O, has been obtained from powder neutron diffraction data in one hour, illustrating the potential of modern instrumentation for characterization of hydrogenous materials without deuteration.
