FeOOH

third-order Birch-Murnaghan · Original · 2017

Why this differs from similar rows?

BM3 fit to the high-pressure H-bond-symmetrized (HC) structure, 30-140 GPa; sibling entry is the low-pressure HOC structure over 0-20 GPa; symmetrization raised K0, lowered K'.

Evidence from the paper

Table 2. Birch-Murnaghan Equation of State Parameters ... High-Pressure Hydrogen Bond Symmetrized Structure (HC; 30–140 GPa) for Self-Consistent U-Value Calculations: V0 (Å3) 58.62(5); K0 (GPa) 223(2); K'0 4.07(3). 'The reference volume (V0) was treated as a free parameter in the equation of state fitting.'
