On the extent of polymerization of liquid sulfur at very high temperatures.
The extent of polymerization of liquid sulfur up to 731 K has been obtained using Raman scattering. The data reveal the absence of a maximum in the polymerization curve. The obtained results are discussed in the spirit of computer simulations that suggest the existence of a maximum which depends on the bond breaking energy.
