Variation of the deviatoric stress in KCl upon compression to P = 9.9 GPa. The deviatoric stress increases with increasing pressure in both the B1 and B2 phases except for at P = ∼2–3 GPa where the two phases coexist owing to pressure-induced phase transition. Coexistence of the B1 and B2 phases was observed at the pressure range between the two dotted lines. Solid lines are guides for the eye. |
