Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

The heat capacity of a strontium tetraborate (SrB4O7) single crystal has been determined in the temperature range 55–300 K by adiabatic calorimetry, and its Debye characteristic temperature, entropy change, enthalpy increment, and phonon mean free path have been calculated as functions of temperature.
