Avaliação dos diagramas de fase do sistema LiF-GdF3 - LuF3 utilizando termodinâmica computacional

Abstract in Portuguese
Neste trabalho, realizou-se o estudo que permitiu a otimização termodinâmica das seções binárias pertencentes ao diagrama de fase ternário do sistema LiF-GdF3-LuF3, para tanto o programa FactSage foi empregado na simulação computacional. Assim, o comportamento de fusão das misturas destes compostos foi elucidado, o que representa uma contribuição inovadora para o conhecimento das propriedades físicas e químicas destes materiais. Em particular, determinou-se a faixa de composições nas quais as soluções sólidas de LiGdxLu1-xF4 e GdxLu1-xF3 podem ser obtidas diretamente da fase líquida. Neste trabalho as três secções binárias, LiF-GdF3, LiF-LuF3 e GdF3-LuF3 foram reavaliadas experimentalmente utilizando a calorimetria exploratória diferencial para a obtenção de dados mais precisos de temperatura versus composição, uma vez que foi possível minimizar a contaminação das amostras com compostos de oxigênio. A capacidade calorífica e outros dados calorimétricos foram também determinados experimentalmente e comparados com os existentes na literatura. Os termos da energia livre de Gibbs de excesso para as fases representadas como soluções, os quais descrevem os efeitos de interação não ideal entre os dois fluoretos nestas fases, foram expressos com sucesso pela modelo polinomial Redlich-Kister. Finalmente, o caminho de solidificação no diagrama de fase ternário LiF-GdF3-LuF3 pôde ser extrapolado de acordo com o formalismo de Kohler-Toop. Assim, pela primeira vez, a interação ternária entre os compostos LiF, GdF3 e LuF3 foi determinada.

Abstract in English
In this work, it was carried out the study that allowed the thermodynamic optimization of the binary sections belonging to the ternary phase diagram of the LiF-GdF3-LuF3 system, for this purpose the FactSage software was used in the computational simulation. Thus, the melting behavior of the mixture of these compounds has been elucidated, which represents an innovative contribution to the knowledge of the physical and chemical properties of these materials. In particular, it was determined the composition ranges in which the solid solutions of LiGdxLu1-xF4 and GdxLu1-xF3 can be obtained directly from the liquid phase. In this work the three binary sections, LiF-GdF3, LiF-LuF3 and GdF3-LuF3, were evaluated using differential scanning calorimetry to obtain more accurate data of temperature versus composition, since it was possible to minimize the contamination of the samples due to oxygen compounds. The heat capacity and other calorimetric data were experimentally determined and compared with those cited in the literature. The terms of the Gibbs free excess energy for the solution phases, which describe the non ideal interaction effects between the two fluorides at these phases, were expressed by the Redlich-Kister polynomial model. Finally, the solidification path in the ternary phase diagram LiF-GdF3-LuF3 could be extrapolated according to the Kohler-Toop formalism. Thus, for the first time, the interaction between the ternary compounds LiF, GdF3 and LuF3 was determined.
