High‐Temperature Phase Transition in KH2PO4

TLDR
The high temperature phase transition in KH2PO4 has been investigated by differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, proton magnetic resonance and relaxation, infrared spectroscopy, and x-ray and quasielastic cold-neutron scattering as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract
The high‐temperature phase transition in KH2PO4 has been investigated by differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, proton magnetic resonance and relaxation, infrared spectroscopy, and x‐ray and quasielastic cold‐neutron scattering. The transition is not connected with a static breaking up of the hydrogen‐bond network but rather with the onset of disordered hindered rotation of the H2PO4 groups around all three axes. It seems that rotation of H2PO4 groups is as well rate determining for the proton conductivity of this crystal.
