An in situ high-temperature scanning electron microscopy study of acanthite–argentite phase transformation in nanocrystalline silver sulfide powder
Literature Information
S. I. Sadovnikov, A. I. Gusev
For the first time, the α-Ag2S (acanthite)–β-Ag2S (argentite) phase transformation in nanocrystalline and coarse-crystalline powders of silver sulfide has been observed in situ by the scanning electron microscopy method in real-time. The argentite crystals are formed on the surface of acanthite particles as a result of electron-beam heating. According to the differential thermal analysis data, the transformation occurs at a temperature of ∼449–450 K, and the enthalpy of transformation is equal to ∼3.7–3.9 kJ mol−1. The presence of α-Ag2S (acanthite)–β-Ag2S (argentite) phase transformation is confirmed in situ by high-temperature X-ray diffraction data.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
