Abstract

The chemical potentials of carbon associated with two three-phase fields in the system U---Mo---C were measured by using the methane-hydrogen gas equilibration technique in the temperature range 973 to 1173 K. The technique was validated by measuring the standard Gibbs energy of formation of Mo2C. From the experimentally measured values of the chemical potential of carbon in the ternary phase fields UC+Mo+UMoC17 and UC+UMoC17+UMoC2, and data for UC from the literature, the Gibbs energies of formation of the two ternary carbides were derived: Δ1G1‹UMoC1Z = -146632 -15.0T(±8200) J mol 1(973-1173 K) Δ1G2 ‹UMoC2=-151 961-13.7T(±8100) Jmol1(973-1173K) Experimentally determined values of the Gibbs energy of formation of UMoC17 are reported for the first time.
