Thermodynamic properties of alloys of the binary In–La system

Resumo

The thermochemical properties of melts of the binary In–La system were studied by the calorimetry method at 1250–1480 K over the whole concentration interval. It was shown that significant negative heat effects of mixing are characteristic features for these melts. Using the ideal associated solution (IAS) model, the activities of components, Gibbs energies and the entropies of mixing in the alloys, and the phase diagram of this system were calculated. They agree with the data from literature.
