The lithium hydride--lithium fluoride system was investigated by thermal analysis and x-ray crystallography in order to study solid solution formation up to the melting point. Thermal analysis data plotted in the form of a solid- liquid phase diagram indicate that solid solutions form in all proportions at tlie melting points of these solutions. X-ray crystallography converted into lattice constants and plotted versus temperature showed two constants up to 321 deg C and only one constant thereafter. It is concluded that lithium hydride and lithium fluoride are completely soluble in each other at their melting points and that a critical solution temperature for the solid solutions may exist between 295 and 321 deg C.
