In this chapter, we illustrate and discuss two distinct groups of microporous phases: the cancrinite group and the C-S-H compounds of the tobermorite and gyrolite families. The compounds in the first group present a three-dimensional purely tetrahedral framework with, apart from a single exception, Si:Al ratio equal to 1; in the mineralogical classifications they are included among feldspathoids and are generally “regarded …… distinct from zeolites, in part, at least, because of the presence of large volatile anions” (Coombs et al. 1998). The members of the second group are characterized by mixed frameworks built up by silicon (and...
