Abstract

Abstract The measurements of differential thermal analysis, thermal expansion and d.c. electric resistance for lithium ferrite were performed in relation to the orderdisorder transition. Conclusions are described as follows; (1) The endothermic reaction and the anomalous expantion take place during the transition. (2) The value of the transition temperature is determined as 660±2°C. by means of dilatometry. (3) The existence of electrolytic conduction is qualitatively recognized. (4) It is verified that the transition is very sluggish.
