A triclinic phase of tricalcium silicate (TI) was investigated using transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Electron diffraction patterns were analyzed by introducing a subcell with the cell parameters of a = 7.081 Å, b = 7.043 Å, c = 25.230 Å, α= 89.97°, β= 90.37°, and γ= 119.44°. It was proven that the coordinates of all the reflections can be expressed to be ha *+ kb *+ lc *± m /6( a *+ 2 b *+ 2 c *), where m = 0, 1, 2, and 3. The result indicates that the structure modulation in TI is a one‐dimensional type with a structural modulation normal to (122). The modulated structure could be observed in a high‐resolution TEM image as wavy contrast streaking parallel to the plane with an interval of six times the (122) spacing.
