Stishovite
SiO2 with 4.36(12) wt% Al2O3 and 0.29(3) wt% H2O
none (not an EOS fit) · Original · 2007
Why this differs from similar rows?
Sample K325 (4.37 wt% Al2O3, 0.29 wt% H2O, synthesized 20 GPa/1400C/5h); different synthesis/composition batch from sibling sample K324, giving higher K_S0.

Evidence from the paper
Stishovite containing 4.37(12) wt% Al2O3 and 0.29(3) wt% H2O possesses higher aggregate moduli: K_S0 = 296(3) GPa and G_S0 = 213(2) GPa, with a calculated density of rho = 4.21(1) g/cm3 based on X-ray diffraction. Table 4: Ks (GPa) 296(3); KT (GPa) 293(3) for K325.
