The density, composition, X‐ray powder data, unit‐cell parameters, and stability fields are reported for five phases of the AgI–NH 4 I–H 2 O chemical system. The determinations were made by X‐ray powder diffraction but with some aid from polarizing optical microscopy. Provisional cell assignments are: phase A n (4AgI.NH 4 I) is cubic, phase B n (3AgI.NH 4 I.6H 2 O) monoclinic, phase C n (AgI.2NH 4 I) orthorhombic, phase En (AgI.2NH 4 I.H 2 O) orthorhombic, and phase F n (2AgI.NH 4 I.2H 2 O) monoclinic. Upon combustion of an acetone solution of silver iodide and ammonium iodide, phase A n forms and, when injected into the atmosphere, transforms to phases F n or B n as determined by the available moisture and temperature.
