Conclusions
The compound Sc3TaO7 synthesized at 1300°C has a monoclinic modification which is stable in vacuum in the 25–1700°C range. We detected a phase inversion of the monoclinic modification into the tetragonal at 1800°C, accompanied by a change in the chemical composition with respect to oxygen. We determined the temperature coefficients of linear expansion of the monoclinic modification of Sc3TaO7 in the 25–1700°C range, and detected a marked anisotropy of temperature expansion in the crystal lattice.
