Abstract

Explosive antimony is not as diamagnetic as the ordinary polycrystalline metal. The magnetic susceptibilities are respectively −0.38 × 10⁻⁶ and −0.88 × 10⁻⁶. The explosive or amorphous form should therefore be regarded as a true glass of the supercooled liquid. The fact that it is less "metallic" than the molten metal cannot be the result of the metallic binding of the liquid or crystalline state changing to homopolar binding in the amorphous state.
