Transition temperature
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
Lua error in package.lua at line 80: module 'strict' not found. Transition temperature is the temperature at which a material changes from one crystal state (allotrope) to another. For example, when rhombic sulfur is heated above 96°C it changes form into monoclinic sulfur. When cooled below 96°C it reverts to rhombic sulfur.
In the case of ferroelectric or ferromagnetic crystals a transition temperature may be known as the Curie temperature.
