The growth morphology of MMTG (manganese mercury thiocyanate glycol monomethyl ether, MnHg(SCN) 4 (C 3 H 8 O 2 )) crystal was indexed according to the X-ray powder diffraction spectroscopy. The density and Mohs hardness were determined at room temperature. The specific heat of the crystal is 458.6 J.mol -1 K -1 at 300 K. The thermal expansion coefficient (TEC) along the a, b and c axis is-5 K -1 and α 3 =2.08×10 -5 K -1 , respectively. The sameness and difference of the TECs are interpreted on the basis of crystal structure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
