摘要
The binary phase diagram for Cr-doped Zn7Sb2O12 was determined and compared with that for Ni-doped Zn7Sb2O12. The beta -> alpha transition temperature, 1225 degrees C for undoped Zn7Sb2O12, decreases extremely rapidly with increasing Cr content; the solubility limit of Cr in beta-(Zn7SbO12)-O-2 is < 1 % but 37.5% in alpha-Zn7Sb2O12. Bond valence sum calculations for the tetrahedral site, which contains exclusively Zn, show it to be significantly underbonded in undoped alpha-Zn7Sb2O12, but less underbonded with increased Ni2+ and especially Cr3+ content, thus providing an explanation for the stabilisation of alpha-Zn7Sb2O12 to lower temperatures on doping with Ni and especially Cr. Sub-solidus compatibility relations in the ternary system ZnO-Sb2O5-Cr2O3 were determined at 1100 degrees C for compositions containing <= 50% Sb2O5. (C) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
