, alkali metal, alkaline earth metal, earth metal and/or a transition metal ion. The anion of the salt-like structured silicate is an island, ring, group, chain, band, layer or tectosilicate or a combination thereof. The structured silicate is produced by (a) reacting a structured silicate, whose cation is NH
