Abstract

The enthalpy increments of the Zr 0.50Au 0.50 phase have been measured by high-temperature drop calorimetry in the temperature range 372–1245 K. From these results, heat capacities of ZrAu have been derived and two changes of the C p values have been observed, in agreement with the existence of three crystalline forms of ZrAu. No latent heat was observed for the low-temperature (564 K) transition, whereas the enthalpy change at high temperature (841 K) was estimated at 1.55 kJ·mol −1, from enthalpy increments obtained by drop calorimetry. These results are discussed in relation to the crystal modifications already reported for the ZrAu compound.
