R. Subasri et Om. Sreedharan, THERMODYNAMIC STABILITIES OF LN(2)BAO(4) (LN=ND, SM, EU EU OR GD) BY CAF2-BASED EMF MEASUREMENTS, Journal of alloys and compounds, 274(1-2), 1998, pp. 153-156
The standard Gibbs' energies of formation (Delta G(f,ox)degrees) of Ln
(2)BaO(4) (Ln=Nd, Sm, Eu or Gd) with respect to the binaries Ln(2)O(3)
and BaO were determined by a high temperature CaF2-based emf method w
ith BaZrO3\ZrO2\BaF2 as the reference electrode and Ln(2)BaO(4)\Ln(2)O
(3)\BaF2 as the test electrodes over the temperature range 900-1175 K.
These ternaries were found to be of relatively similar stability as s
een from the values of -93, -110, -98 and -97 kJ mol(-1) for Delta G(f
,ox)degrees of Nd, Sm, Eu or Gd analogs at an interpolated temperature
of 1000 K. (C) 1998 Published by Elsevier Science S.A.
