A subcommission was formed to address this problem, and eventually a set of recommendations was published (McCusker et al. 2001). These recommendations, which include both basic nomenclature and a standardized crystal chemical formula, are based on common usage and on a systematic classification scheme recently published by Liebau (2003).
Zeolites and zeolite-like materials, with their 3-dimensional, 4-connected inorganic frameworks, served as the basis for this terminology, because they constitute...
