Abstract

(Na,K)M2(PO4)3 (M = Ti, Zr, Hf) continuous solid solutions were synthesized by sol-gel and solidstate methods. Cation-exchange reactions in the NaM2(PO4)3–KM2(PO4)3–NaCl–KCl–H2O systems were studied at T = 723 – 973 K and p = 100–200 MPa. The concentration dependences of unit cell parameters of the studied phosphates were found. The sodium/potassium distribution coefficients in the phosphate-fluid systems were functions of the solid solution compositions, that is, the systems behave nonideally. The excess volumes and excess Gibbs functions of solid solutions mixing were fitted to thirdorder polynomials and described in terms of the Margules model. From the comparison of the results obtained Ti-, Zr-, and Hf-systems, we made the conclusion that the titanium phosphates show greater nonideality than zirconium and hafnium phosphates and lower thermodynamic stability to decomposition to double phosphates at high pressures and temperatures.
