Abstract: | Heat capacities and enthalpies of formation of BaGd2O4 were determined by high-temperature differential scanning calorimetry and high-temperature oxide melt solution calorimetry, respectively. Thermodynamic stability of BaLn2O4 compounds increases with decreasing Ln3+ ionic radius. Previously reported data on BaNd2O4 and BaSm2O4 corroborate this trend. Missing data for compounds in BaO–Ln2O3 (Ln = La, Pr, Eu, Er) systems were estimated from established relations, thermodynamic assessment was performed, and binary phase diagrams were calculated. |
