Abstract
The hardening effect of Li+, Na+, K+ and Rb+ impurities in polycrystalline AgCl was investigated. With increasing concentration of the impurities the flow stress increases and the plasticity decreases. By doping with a few ppm of Rb+ AgCl becomes very brittle. Comparing the results with the statistical theory of solid solution hardening, deviations were found.
