Thermodynamics properties and thermal conductivity of Mg2Pb at high pressure

The thermodynamics properties and thermal conductivity of Mg2Pb at high pressures have been calculated by first-principles. The enthalpy of formation and heat capacity obtained at 0 GPa are in good agreement with the experiments and other theoretical results. The thermal conductivity and coefficient of thermal expansion of Mg2Pb at high pressure were evaluated. The thermal conductivity presents a second-order polynomial with pressure. The calculated thermal conductivity of Mg2Pb indicates that it is suitable to be used as thermal conductor at 0 K.
