Abstract:
Reversible inversion ± ?i in halogens during aging and rest has been studied under ozonizer excitation. The inversion of + ?i into — ?i on aging is attributed to the progressive formation of a chemisorbed layer. The inversion of — ?i into + ?i under rest period is due to a slow interaction between absorbed gaseous species on a Van der Waals and chemisorbed layer, the latter process being too slow as compared to the former. It is suggested that the glass walls undergo reversible conditioning = an constant electrical activation and this has been explained in the light of the development of a strain on the walls under aging, which is relaxed when allowed to rest.
