要旨

The elastic properties of 1-chloroadamantane and 1-Bromoadamantane in order–disorder and order–quasi-order phase transitions at temperatures in the range of 77–305 K and high pressures up to 1.1 GPa are studied by the ultrasonic method. The elastic moduli of halogenated adamantanes clearly indicate these transitions, demonstrating high capabilities of the ultrasonic method. Our ultrasonic studies have detected for the first time the λ-anomaly of the elastic properties and, thereby, have confirmed that the phase transition from the orientationally ordered to quasi-ordered phase (M → O) in 1-bromoadamantane is a weak first-order phase transition having some properties of a second-order phase transition. The pressure derivatives of the elastic moduli of 1-chloroadamantane and 1-bromoadamantane in the orientationally ordered phase at 77 K are dB/dP ≈ 8, which allows using the Lennard-Jones potential to theoretically describe this phase.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
