Accurate X-ray diffraction measurements were carried out in a series of pow
dered mixed compounds (BA)(1-x)(DBA)(x). The behaviour of the lattice param
eters a, b, c and beta as a function of x were analyzed. The behaviour of t
he lattice parameters as a function of temperature provided evidence for di
fferent phase transitions in BA and DBA92 and pointed out the existence of
a strong anisotropy in these systems.
