In this assignment‚ the quartz will be referred to as SiO2. Under an experiment conducted‚ the temperature was ranged within 294K to 1073K. At high temperature‚ the structural parameter of FePO4 would converges to a β-quartz whereas it will converges to a α-quartz at lower temperature. As for the phase transition state‚ it will

paragraph‚ the structural and chemistry differences between quartz‚ α-FePO4 and β-FePO4 will be discussed. Quartz do have some similarities with the other 2 components. The structure of quartz‚ similarly depends on the temperature of the environment. Quartz can exist as an alpha or beta form. This is one similarity between the 3. The difference between α-FePO4 and β-FePO4‚ is that α-FePO4 is the most common form of existence for FePO4 and is structurally similar to the alpha configuration of alpha quartz
