Abstract
A new substitutional solid solution of the composition Zn2−xMgxInV3O11 was found to form in the Zn2InV3O11–Mg2InV3O11 system. The new phase was obtained by solid-state reactions. The phase was synthesized by heating in air adequate mixtures of ZnO, V2O5, In2O3 with a precursor of MgO and was characterized using XRD, DTA–TG, IR and SEM/EDX methods. The effects of the degree of Mg2+ ion incorporation in the crystal lattice of Zn2InV3O11 replacing Zn2+ on the unit cell volume, thermal stability, morphology and IR spectra of Zn2−xMgxInV3O11 in the range 0.0 < x < 2.0 were determined. A phase diagram up to solidus line of the pseudobinary Zn2InV3O11–Mg2InV3O11 system was constructed.
