| dc.description.abstract |
The double sulfate family (ABSO4), where A and B are alkali metal cations, is the object of great
interest owing to the complexity and richness of its sequence of phase transition induced by temperature
variation. A new sulfate salt characterized by the presence of water molecule in the unit cell with the chemical
formula, Li2Na3(SO4)2⋅6H2O (LSSW), was obtained. The ultrasonic velocity measurement was done with pulse
echo overlap technique [PEO]. All the six second order elastic stiffness constants, C11 = C22, C33, C44 = C55, C12,
C14 and C13 = C23 are reported for the first time. The anisotropy in the elastic properties of the crystal are well
explained by the pictorial representation of the polar plots of phase velocity, slowness, Young’s modulus and
linear compressibility in a–b and a–c planes. |
