This study assessed the effect of kaolinite edge surfaces on solid-state reactions. Specifically, Tb3+-doped metastable CaAl2Si2O8 showing green phosphorescence was prepared via a solid-state reaction between expanded kaolinite, a methoxy-modified kaolinite, having Tb3+ ions adsorbed on its edge surfaces and CaCO3. This material cannot be obtained by the conventional grinding of kaolinite, CaCO3 and Tb2O3, indicating that the use of kaolinite edge surfaces is advantageous as a means of achieving certain solid-state reactions.
