摘要
Thermodynamic activity of Ca in the Lit-ordered intermetallic phase Ni3Ga has been determined by measuring the electromotive force of a galvanic cell with zirconia solid-electrolyte, Ni-Ga, Ga2O3/ZrO2(+Y2O3)/Ga, Ga2O3 in the temperature range between 1050 and 1300K for six compositions. The activity of Ga varies with composition most steeply at the stoichiometric composition (25 mol%Ga), the dependence being more pronounced at low temperatures. By applying a thermodynamic model based on the Bragg-Williams approximation (Ikeda et ral.: Acta Mater. 46 (1998) 6605-6613), the effective pair interaction energy between Ni and Ga atoms has been determined to be 9.75 +/- 0.19 kJ/mol. The thermodynamic factor in chemical diffusion in the L1(2) phase has been derived from the composition dependence of the thermodynamic activity.
