The phase transitions and thermal expansion of apatite-structured compounds with the general formula MII5(AVO4)3L (MII = Ca, Sr, Cd, Ba, Pb; AV = P, V, Cr, Mn; L = OH, F, Cl, Br, I) have been studied by high-temperature X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis.

The phase transitions and thermal expansion of apatite-structured compounds with the general formula MII5(AVO4)3L (MII = Ca, Sr, Cd, Ba, Pb; AV = P, V, Cr, Mn; L = OH, F, Cl, Br, I) have been studied by high-temperature X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis. Polymorphic transition nature was explained on the basis of the structure data. Connection between thermal stability and peculiarities of thermal expansion, which were explained in assumption of composition and structure of apatites was ascertained.
