Abstract

The compression of carbon tetrachloride has been measured along twelve isotherms covering a pressure range of 0.1 to 200 MPa and a temperature range of 254 to 298 K. Volume changes were measured with an automated capacitance bridge–one side of the bellows containing the sample serving as one plate of the capacitor. Data were obtained in the liquid, face-centered cubic (fcc), and rhombohedral phases, during melting, during freezing into the fcc phase and during the fcc to rhombohedral phase change. Premelting behavior was observed for both solids. The disappearance of the fcc phase at approximately 273 K and the existence of dual melting curves for the fcc and rhombohedral phases were reaffirmed.
