Also, we calculated inter planar spacing (d) of the synthesized materials with using Braggs equation. Synthesized materials sizes were calculated via scherrer equation in different phases and in different Li:Si molar ratios. Cell parameters of lithium metasilicate are a=9.392, b=5.397 and c=4.66 Å and the parameters for lithium disilicate are a=15.82, b=14.66 and c=4.79Å. Cell parameters of lithium sodium silinaite are a=5.06, b=8.23 and c=14.38Å with space group of A2/n. Results show that lithium metasilicate and lithium disilicate have space groups of Cmc21 and Ccc2, respectively.
