Abstract:According to Grimm et al. (4,5,6,10,11) mixed-crystal formation between two chemical individuals may occur when the following conditions are satisfied: (1) the chemical building types of the two compounds must be the same; (2) the lattice types must be the same; (S) the lattice constants must be of the same order of magnitude. Similarity of chemical building types refers to pairs of compounds with the same number of cations and anions in which the corresponding ions are made up of the same number of atoms. The… Show more
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.
