Abstract

When the Kleppa lab at the University of Chicago closed, one of the drop calorimeters was moved to IIT just 3 miles to the north. The collaboration between UC and IIT that began in the 1990’s initiated two decades of calorimetry and thermal analysis at IIT. The research continued the studies on the enthalpy of formation of binary compounds performed in Ole Kleppa’s lab at UC and extended the work to ternary intermetallics. The acquisition of a Setaram drop calorimeter and Setaram DSC/TGA allowed us to extend our studies to specific heat measurements and thermal analysis of alloy systems. This presentation provides an overview of the work performed over the last 20 yr at IIT, provides some recent unpublished data, and highlights some of the important results.
