Abstract
Heat capacity measurements were carried out on (Ca 0.85Ce 0.15)TiO 3 and (Ca 0.85La 0.15)TiO 3 in the temperature range of 292–1550 K by using a direct heating pulse calorimeter. The results indicate the presence of two phase transitions, one at 1380 ± 20 K and another at 1540 ± 20 K in (Ca 0.85Ce 0.15)TiO 3 and one at 1380 ± 20 K and another above 1500 K in (Ca 0.85La 0.15)TiO 3 The kind of dopant appeared to have no obvious difference on the transition temperature. The measured heat capacity data were used to derive the values of the thermodynamic functions, namely enthalpy increment, entropy and free energy function, as a function of temperature. The enthalpy and the entropy of the phase transitions were calculated from the heat capacity change.
