Abstract

The standard enthalpies of formation of intermetallic compounds of some Lanthanide-iron  systems have been measured by high temperature direct synthesis calorimetry at 1373 2K. The following results in kJ/mole of atoms are reported: Ce2Fe17(-1.6  2.8);  Pr2Fe17(-0.2 3.0); Nd2Fe17(-3.0 2.7); Sm2Fe17(-3.1 3.2 ); GdFe2(-2.4 3.0); HoFe2(-2.6 3.3); ErFe2(-1.9 3.0); TmFe2(-2.2 2.8); LuFe2(-3.6  3.1).

The standard enthalpies of formation of some binary and ternary shape memory alloys have also been measured. These are: Terfenol-D(-1.5 3.1), Samfenol(-13.6 3.1), Galfenol(-10.4 2.8).The values are compared with predicted values of the semi empirical model of  Miedema and Coworkers and with predictions  by ab initio calculations. We will present a systematic picture of how the enthalpies of formation may be related to the atomic number of the Lanthanide element. We will also compare the thermochemical behavior of LA-Ni and the LA-Fe alloys.
