Abstract: | DSC was used to investigate phase equilibrium in the CeBr3–MBr (M = Li, Na) systems. They represent typical examples of simple eutectic systems. The eutectic composition and eutectic temperature, x(CeBr3) = 0.249, Teut = 709 K and x(CeBr3) = 0.372, Teut = 692 K, were found for CeBr3–LiBr and CeBr3–NaBr systems, respectively. The electrical conductivity of CeBr3–MBr liquid mixtures, together with that of pure components was measured down to temperatures below solidification. Results obtained are discussed in term of possible complex formation. |
