Abstract

All MDO-polytypes (i.e. regular polytypes) of trioctahedral, dioctahedral and monoctahedral 1:1 phyllosilicates are derived from their OD-character using the results of our preceding paper. The terms ‘simple polytype’, ‘standard polytype’ and ‘regular polytype’ turn out to be synonyms of the term ‘MDO-polytype’ which has the advantage of being exactly defined. The method used to obtain the MDO-polytypes is also applicable to more complicated cases.
