title: Pair distribution function analysis of pressure treated zeolite Na-A.
abstract: Pair distribution function studies using X-ray scattering data from zeolite Na-A samples treated at pressure up to 8 GPa indicate a pressure-induced amorphisation mechanism involving loss of crystallographic order of the aluminosilicate framework but retention of the local sodium to oxygen bonding.
