Thermodynamic properties of Al-Y system melts

摘要

The thermochemical properties of Al-Y melts were determined by isoperibolic calorimetry. It was established that the minimal value of integral mixing enthalpies is equal to -40.8 + 0.4 kJ/mol at 1770 K and xY = 0.41. The thermodynamic properties of liquid alloys were modeled by the developed procedure using the coordinates of a liquidus line in the phase diagram of the Al-Y system, and by the theory of ideal associated solutions. The component activities exhibit high negative deviations from the Raoult law. The Gibbs energies of mixing of Al-Y melts have a minimum of -30.6 kJ/mol at xY = 0.48.
