SOLID STATE STUDIES ON SOME MIXED METAL OXALATE SYSTEMS

Abstract

Many diverse changes occurring in a variety of solids make the solid state a very interesting field. The complexity in the nature and mechanism of reactions in solids, has necessitated a methodical approach for their study. Certain aspects of solid state phenomena are of interest to chemists and are particularly amenable to chemist's approach. These include solid state decompo sitions, phase transitions, bonding in crystals, surface phenomena, crystal growth, crystal imperfections and so on...............................
