Abstract

Identification of various inorganic compound crystals contained in solar salts, which are produced from 12 areas of Jeonnam, was firstly made by the X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique. The analysis of the XRD spectra was carried out on the basis of Joint Committee on Powder Diffraction Standards (JCPDS) data and the results of Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometer (EDX) measurements. In particular, the analysis of the XRD spectra supported that each solar salt contains $Na_2S$ (Shinan Jeungdo and Sinui), $KMgCl_3$ (Shinan Bigeum), $Ca(ClO_3)_2$ (Shinan Docho), $CaAl_4O_7$ (Haenam Songji), $CaSiO_3$ and $CaCl_2$ (Goheung) as inorganic compound crystals, which have not been reported for the solar salts. Also, the XRD results indicated that the solar salts maintain a cubic NaCl crystal structure without any change of lattice parameters etc. However, it was shown in the Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscope (FE-SEM) images that an external form of the solar salts has a lamination layer shape of a cubic structure, which is different from a simple cubic form for the purified salts and the reagent NaCl.

본 연구는 천일염 결정 내에 함유된 무기물들의 화합물 결정 상태를 비파괴적인 방법인 XRD 방법으로 규명할 수 있는지를 조사하기 위하여, 전남 서남해안의 12개 지역 염전에서 채취한 12종의 천일염들에 대하여 X선 회절선을 측정하고, 이 X선 회절선 스펙트럼을 EDX 측정 결과와 JCPDS 데이터와의 비교 분석을 통하여 천일염 결정 내에 함유된 무기물들의 화합물 결정 상태를 처음으로 확인하였다. 특히 아직까지 알려져 있지 않았던 무기질 화합물 결정들이 천일염에 함유되어 있음을 밝혀냈는데, 신안 증도와 신의의 천일염에서 $Na_2S$, 신안 비금의 천일염에서 $KMgCl_3$, 신안 도초에서 $Ca(ClO_3)_2$, 해남 송지에서 $CaAl_4O_7$, 고흥에서 $CaSiO_3$, $CaCl_2$, 해남 토판 소금에서 NaKCl 등이 관측되었다. 또한 XRD 측정 결과는 천일염의 결정구조가 소금의 입방구조인 NaCl구조를 그대로 유지함을 보였으며, 격자상수도 정제염이나 시약염에 비해 거의 변화가 없는 비슷한 값을 보였다. 그러나 FE-SEM으로부터 조사한 천일염의 외형적 결정 구조는 정제염과 시약염에서 보이는 소금 NaCl의 결정구조인 정육면체의 결정 형태와는 달리 이들이 적층되어 이루어진 결정 형태의 특징을 보였다. 또한 결정 입자의 크기에 있어서도 정제염이나 시약염보다 수백 배에 이르는 특징을 보였다.
