Earlier, we studied the electrical conductivity of inorganic salts in a number of alcohols (ethanol, propanol-2, and butanol-1) at room temperature and found that alcoholic solutions of inorganic salts are weak electrolytes. It is known that an increase in the temperature of salt solutions leads to an increase in electrical conductivity due to an increase in the mobility of their ions in the solvent medium. To study the temperature dependence of the electrical conductivity of aqueous solutions of electrolytes, we proposed an approach based on the study of the effect of temperature on the equivalent electrical conductivity of solutions at infinite dilution λ∞. Using this approach, we studied the electrical conductivity of aqueous solutions of a number inorganic salts (nitrates, acetates, and phosphates), carboxylic acids, and amino acids as a function of temperature. It was found that for these solutions the dependence λ∞(Т) is described by the exponential Arrhenius equation λ∞ = Аexp(-E/(RT)). This equation was used to describe the temperature dependence of the ultimate equivalent conductivity for solutions of a number of inorganic salts (calcium and nitrate calcium, cadmium, lithium and potassium iodides, chloride, iodide and ammonium nitrate, silver nitrate and sodium bromide) in ethanol. This article investigated and demonstrated the possibility of describing the experimental data λ∞(Т) for solutions of ethylates, propylates and isopropylates of sodium and potassium in the corresponding alcohols (ethylates in ethanol, propylates in propanol, isopropylates in isopropyl alcohol) using the same equation.


In a previous paper from this laboratory (Andrade and Tsien 1937) the particular interest of body-centred cubic crystals was pointed out, and the glide elements for single crystals of sodium and potassium at atmospheric temperatures were determined, viz. glide plane (123) and glide direction [111]. Another paper (Tsien and Chow 1937) describes the determination of the glide elements for molybdenum, for which the glide direction was again [111], but the glide plane was different at different temperatures, viz. (110) at 1000° C and (112) at 300 and 20° C. Planes (123), (110) and (112) have all been given as glide planes for α -iron by different workers (Taylor and Elam 1926; Gough 1928; Fahrenhorst and Schmid 1932), while for tungsten (Goucher 1924) the glide plane has been given as (112) and for β -brass under certain conditions (G. I. Taylor 1928) as (110).

Recently we have investigated the phase equilibria and antiphase domain structures of Fe-Al alloys containing from 18 to 50 at.% Al by transmission electron microscopy and Mössbauer techniques. This study has revealed that none of the published phase diagrams are correct, although the one proposed by Rimlinger agrees most closely with our results to be published separately. In this paper observations by transmission electron microscopy relating to the nucleation of disorder in Fe-24% Al will be described. Figure 1 shows the structure after heating this alloy to 776.6°C and quenching. The white areas are B2 micro-domains corresponding to regions of disorder which form at the annealing temperature and re-order during the quench. By examining specimens heated in a temperature gradient of 2°C/cm it is possible to determine the effect of temperature on the disordering reaction very precisely. It was found that disorder begins at existing antiphase domain boundaries but that at a slightly higher temperature (1°C) it also occurs by homogeneous nucleation within the domains. A small (∼ .01°C) further increase in temperature caused these micro-domains to completely fill the specimen.

Temperature affects both elastic and inelastic scattering of electrons in a crystal. The Debye-Waller factor, B, describes the influence of temperature on the elastic scattering of electrons, whereas the imaginary part of the (complex) atomic form factor, fc = fr + ifi, describes the influence of temperature on the inelastic scattering of electrons (i.e. absorption). In HRTEM simulations, two possible ways to include absorption are: (i) an approximate method in which absorption is described by a phenomenological constant, μ, i.e. fi; - μfr, with the real part of the atomic form factor, fr, obtained from Hartree-Fock calculations, (ii) a more accurate method in which the absorptive components, fi of the atomic form factor are explicitly calculated. In this contribution, the inclusion of both the Debye-Waller factor and absorption on HRTEM images of a (Oll)-oriented GaAs crystal are presented (using the EMS software.Fig. 1 shows the the amplitudes and phases of the dominant 111 beams as a function of the specimen thickness, t, for the cases when μ = 0 (i.e. no absorption, solid line) and μ = 0.1 (with absorption, dashed line).
