Abstract
AbstractThe thermodynamic properties of Ni‐Gd alloys were determined by electromotive force measurements between 873 and 1073 K on galvanic cells using CaF2 single crystals as solid electrolytes. Results yield a complete set of thermodynamic functions for the intermetallic phases (Ni), Ni17Gd2, Ni5Gd, Ni4Gd, Ni7Gd2, Ni3Gd, Ni2Gd, NiGd, Ni2Gd3, and NiGd3, as well as information on the phase relations. The system is characterized by pronounced negative deviations from ideality. The relative partial excess Gibbs energy of gadolinium at infinite dilution, ΔG (xGd→0), was determined to be ‐(104±5) kJ/mol. A comparison with analogous systems indicates the influence of the electronic structure of the components on thermodynamic properties of mixing. In order to fix the liquidus curve, differential thermal analysis was carried out over the entire range of composition.
