Abstract
The BaF2-YF3 system was partially investigated, with focus given to the BaY2F8 compound and its neighboring phases. In this report, various difficulties that hinder the thermal analysis investigation of this binary fluoride system are described in detail. Samples of various compositions ranging from 58 to 79% YF3 were prepared and subjected to thermal analysis (DTA, TG and DSC) and X-ray diffraction. Diffraction patterns were analyzed through the Rietveld method for the calculation of phase concentrations in samples and determination of the lattice parameters of monoclinic BaY2F8. Thermal results were compared with data from the literature and discrepancies were found.
