Abstract: The synthesis of calcium aluminum silicate hydroxide (CASH) has been carried out under mild hydrothermal and solvothermal conditions. Different mineralizers such as HCOOH, HNO<subscript>3</subscript>, CH<subscript>3</subscript>COOH, HCl, mixed acids, NaOH and non-aqueous solvents like C<subscript>2</subscript>H<subscript>5</subscript>OH, n-butanol, glycol, methanol, etc., were employed in the synthesis of CASH. The crystals obtained were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and FTIR spectroscopic techniques. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
