Na+，K+//Br-，SO42--H2O四元体系323 K相平衡研究

采用等温溶解平衡法研究了四元体系Na⁺,K⁺//Br^-,SO₄^2--H₂O在323 K的相平衡关系,测定了该体系323 K的溶解度及平衡液相的密度,绘制了该体系的相图。研究发现：平衡体系存在复盐钾芒硝Na₂SO₄·3K₂SO₄的结晶区。其相图由3个共饱和点,7条单变量曲线和5个结晶区组成。相区分别对应NaBr·2H₂O、Na₂SO₄、K₂SO₄、KBr和Na₂SO₄·3K₂SO₄结晶区。其中复盐钾芒硝Na₂SO₄·3K₂SO₄,Na₂SO₄和K₂SO₄有较大结晶区,而NaBr·2H₂O和KBr有较小结晶区。对比了等温条件下四元体系Na⁺,K⁺//Cl^-,SO₄^2--H₂O相平衡结果。实验结果表明溴化物对硫酸盐有较强盐析作用。     

Low‐temperature elastic and dielectric properties of K3Na(SO4)2 crystals

Elastic and dielectric properties of glaserite K₃Na(SO₄)₂ single crystal were examined using the method of composite oscillators, Brillouin light scattering methods and dielectric spectroscopy. Measurements were performed in the temperature range from 18 K to 300 K. Anomalies in the temperature dependencies of Brillouin shift and dielectric permittivity at about 70 K confirmed the earlier predicted phase transition at 75 ± 25 K. Temperature dependences of the resonance frequency of the vibrating composite oscillator, Brillouin shift measured in the [110] direction, components of dielectric permittivity tensor reveal an anomaly at about 50 K. Moreover, thermal hysteresis of the dielectric permittivity suggested the presence of an incommensurate state between T ₁ = 50 K and T ₂ = 70 K. (© 2006 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

DC conductivity studies in K3Na(SeO4)2 single crystals

DC electrical conductivity studies were carried out along the three crystallographic axes for Tripotassium sodium diselenate (K₃Na(SeO₄)₂ or KNSe). Earlier studies of phase transition in this crystal show successive phase transitions at 334 K, 346 K, 730 K, and 758 K. In this paper we report the dc electrical conductivity measurements in the temperature region 303 K – 430 K along a, b and c – axes. An anomaly in conductivity was obtained around 341 K and another one around 333 K. These can be attributed as due to phase transitions in this crystal. A strong anomaly also has been observed along the c‐axis and comparatively week one along a and b axes around 395 K for the first time. This can be due to newly observed phase transition in the crystal. DSC taken for the sample also shows endothermic peak supporting the occurrence of newly observed phase transition.

Study of phase transitions in the system A1B11PO4 with A1 = Li,Rb and B11 = Mg,Ca, Sr,Ba, Zn,Cd, Pb

The series of the title compounds were prepared by solid-state reactions. The phase transitions between room temperature and 1450 °C were investigated by DTA and X-ray diffraction. All compounds undergo at least one reversible phase transition in the solid state. The Rb containing compounds, with the exception of those with Cd and Zn, show no liquid phase up to 1450 °C. The phases formed crystallize with various structures which can be described partly as distorted olivine, LiKSO₄, CsZnPO₄ or glaserite. RbCdPO₄ shows an incommensurate structure with a one-dimensional modulation.
