Vaporization and Thermodynamic Properties of GdFeO3 and GdCoO3 Complex Oxides

The processes of gadolinium ferrite and gadolinium cobaltite vaporization was studied. It was shown that the predominant components of vapor are atomic iron and cobalt, which are characteristic for the vaporization of individual iron and cobalt oxides, respectively. The activities of iron and cobalt oxides in GdFeO3 and GdCoO3 were determined.
