Crystal structure of compositionally homogeneous, nanocrystalline ZrO2–CeO2 solutions was investigated by X-ray powder diffraction as a function of temperature for compositions between 50 and 65 mol % CeO2. ZrO2-50 and 60 mol % CeO2 solid solutions, which exhibit the t′-form of the tetragonal phase at room temperature, transform into the cubic phase in two steps: t′-to-t″ followed by t″-to-cubic. But the ZrO2-65 mol % CeO2, which exhibits the t″-form, transforms directly to the cubic phase. The results suggest that t′-to-t″ transition is of first order, but t″-to-cubic seems to be of second order.

X-ray powder diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC)/thermogravimetry (TG) and single-crystal neutron diffraction methods were used to investigate triammonium hydrogen disulfate (NH4)3H(SO4)2 (TAHS) in the temperature range between 293 and 493 K. The temperature-dependent X-ray powder diffraction measurements show a clear hysteresis of the I \leftrightarrow II phase transition of TAHS with transition temperatures of T up = 412.9 (1) K on heating and of T down = 402.6 (1) K on cooling. From the existence of hysteresis and from the jump-like changes of the lattice parameters, the I \leftrightarrow II phase transition of TAHS is considered to be first order. With DSC/TG measurements we confirmed that there is only one phase transition between 293 and 493 K. Through careful investigation on single crystals of TAHS using neutron diffraction, the correct space group (C2/c) of room-temperature TAHS-II phase was confirmed. Crystal structure analysis by single-crystal neutron diffraction showed a strongly elongated displacement ellipsoid of the proton which lies in the middle of the (SO4)H(SO4) dimer with \bar 1 local symmetry. The protons of the NH4 groups also show strongly enlarged anisotropic mean-square displacements. These findings are interpreted in terms of a characteristic proton disorder in the TAHS-II phase.
