Ajoite and Sapphire Chemical Formula

While comparing Ajoite and Sapphire physical properties, the important data you should know is its chemical composition. Since chemical formula defines the molecular structure of the crystal, most of the physical properties like color, tenacity, solubility are governed by Ajoite and Sapphire chemical formula.

  • Chemical formula of Ajoite- (K,Na)3Cu20Al3Si29O76(OH)16•~8(H2O)
  • Chemical formula of Sapphire- Al 2 O 3

Ajoite and Sapphire Specific Gravity

Another important criteria for qualitative analysis of gemstones is Ajoite and Sapphire Specific gravity. Specific gravity is the relative density of a gemstone compared with respect to density of water. Gemologists use Ajoite and Sapphire Optical Properties during the identification of gemstone. Specific gravity of Ajoite is 3.95-4.03 whereas that of Sapphire is 3.95-4.03.
