Dear all,

for synthesis of Ba-Hollandite (BaMn8O16) described in: Cheng, S., Lin, J. T., Ocelli, M. L., & Robson, H. E. (1992). Expanded Clays and Microporous Solids (p.335 & 337), I need Ba-Permanganite (Ba(MnO4)2).

Unfortunately, this seems very hard to purchase, at least no "typical" supplier offers it. Has anyone a suggestion, where to get some small amounts (~ 10-15 g) of Ba(MnO4)2 with a purity of >99% ?

Or: Does anyone know another well working synthesis protocol yielding pure BaMn8O16? A natural speciment would work too, but I haven´t found any that is chemically homogeneous enough.

So, I am looking forward to your suggestions and ideas!

Thank you very much,

Teresa
