SPINEL & INVERSE SPINEL STRUCTURES The spinels spinels have  have the general formula AB2X4. Where: AII = a divalent cation like Mg, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Cd, n !III = a trivalent cation like Al, "a, In, Ti, #, Cr, Mn, Fe, Fe, Co, Ni $ = %, , e etc. Structure Stru cture of Norm Norml l Spi Spinels nels !AB 2"4#$ The dival divalent ent A II ion& occu'( the tetra tetrahedr hedral al void void&, &, )herea& the trivalent !III ion& occu'( the octahedral void& in the clo&e 'acked arrangement of o*ide ion&.
