Thermodynamic properties and phase equilibria in the Cr-P system

  • Published:
Journal of Phase Equilibria

Abstract

A Knudsen effusion method with mass-spectrometric analysis of gaseous phase has been applied to investigate the thermodynamic properties of the chromium phosphides (1341 to 1704 K) and Cr-P liquid alloys (1664 to 1819 K). Simultaneously, DSC has been used to measure heat capacities of chromium phosphides Cr3P and Cr12P7 in the temperature range of113 to 873 K. The entropies of formation of chromium phosphides calculated according to the second and third laws of thermodynamics agree within the limits of experimental error. The Gibbs energies of formation of the phosphides from solid Cr and P2 gas have been approximated with the following equations (in J/mol): AfG0(Cr3P) = −(244 112 ±2800) + (70.95 ±1.80)T ΔG0(Cr122P7) = −(1563 678 ±15 350) + (440.6 ±9.90)T Thermodynamic properties of liquid solutions have been described with the ideal associated-solution model assuming that CrP, Cr2P, Cr3P, and Cr3P2 complexes exist in the melt. The phase diagram computed with the help of the thermodynamic data agrees with the published information.
