Abstract: | A new method is proposed for the estimation of the enthalpy of formation (ΔoxH) of various Al2O3-Ln2O3 mixed oxides from the constituent binary oxides. Our method is based on Pauling's concept of electronegativity and, in particular, on the relation between the enthalpy of formation of a binary oxide and the difference between the electronegativities of the oxide-forming element and oxygen. This relation is extended to mixed oxides with a simple formula given for the calculation of ΔoxH. The parameters of this equation were fitted using published experimental values of ΔoxH derived from high-temperature oxide melt solution calorimetry. Using our proposed method, we obtained a standard deviation (σ) of 4.87 kJ mol−1 for this data set. Taking into account regularities within the lanthanide series, we then estimated the ΔoxH values for Al2O3-Ln2O3 mixed oxides. The values estimated using our method were compared with those obtained by Aronson's and Zhuang's empirical methods, both of which give significantly poorer results. |
