The Dependence of the Thermal Expansion Co-efficients of Silver Haloids on Temperature

Abstract

EUCKEN and Dannöhl1 observed an increase of the expansion coefficients of the haloids of the alkali metals with temperature. Monocrystals of silver chloride and silver bromide also exhibit a peculiar increase of expansion at high temperatures (near the melting point) several times larger than those observed by Eucken and Dannöhl.
