Abstract

A detailed thermodynamic study of the systems LnSe2LnSe1.5 (Ln = La, Nd) was performed by static method of vapour pressure measurement using quartz membrane-gauge manometers within the temperature range 713–1,395 K. The p SeTx dependences obtained in this study have shown that the phase regions in composition intervals studied consist of discrete phases: LnSe1.95 LnSe1.90, LnSe1.85, LnSe1.80 (Ln = La, Nd). The enthalpies and the entropies for the stepwise dissociation process were calculated from the experimental data. The standard enthalpies of formation and the absolute entropies were estimated for the compounds investigated using literature data.
