The lattice parameter of MoSCI was determined at different temperatures from 30 to 437°C with X-ray diffraction methods. The coefficient of thermal expansion of this cubic compound was determined from the above data. At 550°C it was found that the compound irreversibly transforms to α-MoO3, which belongs to the orthorhombic system.
