Abstract

Decomposition behavior of Ln2Mn4/3W2/3O7 (Ln = Eu and Er) in reducing atmosphere at 1273 K was determined. These compounds decomposed to LnMnO3 and Ln2MnWO7 at PO2 = 10−8.46 atm for Ln = Eu and 10−7.46 atmosphere for Ln = Er, respectively. Decomposition product Eu2MnWO7 decomposed to Eu2MnWO6 at PO2 = 10−15.67 atm, while Er2MnWO7 decomposed to Er2O3, MnO, and W less than 10−17 atm. The standard Gibbs free energy changes of decomposition for Eu2Mn4/3W2/3O7, Eu2MnWO7, and Er2Mn4/3W2/3O7 at 1273 K were determined to be 34.4 kJ · mol−1, 191.9 kJ · mol−1, and 44.8 kJ · mol−1, respectively. The standard Gibbs free energy changes of formation of Er2Mn4/3W2/3O7 and Er2MnWO7 were also determined to be −2429.5 and −2463.2 kJ · mol−1 at 1273 K, respectively.
