Abstract

When liquid S is heated above 159 °C, the S8 rings (which are the dominant structural units below this temperature) break open and polymerize into helical chains (S). Therefore, samples quenched from liquids at temperatures above or below 159 °C would be different in various properties by the difference in the amount of S. The present ultrasonic study of liquid-quenched S in the temperature range from room temperature to 200 °C has revealed this difference. It has been demonstrated that ultrasonics is as powerful as a conventional thermal analysis in dealing with the variation of a material with increasing temperature, even though both techniques were found to be relatively insensitive to the polymerization process.
