Li-Rh

Li-Rh (Lithium-Rhodium) J. Sangster and A.D. Pelton The assessed Li-Rh phase diagram is highly speculative, based on very limited data. No liquidus data have been published for this system. [64Mag] and [78Whe] performed thermal analysis, but no experimental details were given. For alloys containing less than 50 at.% Rh, "melting points" were observed consistently at 0.5 C below the melting point of pure Li. This may be interpreted as a eutectic temperature. Although the solubility of Rh in solid (Li) has not been measured, atomic size and structure considerations suggest an extremely low solubility. According to [81Loe], the solubility of Li in solid (Rh) is very small. The compound LiRh has been prepared by direct combination of the element in iron [65Sid, 64Mag, 78Whe] or stainless steel [60Far] containers and characterized by its X-ray pattern [60Far, 65Sid, 64Mag]. The congruent melting point was proposed [64Mag, 78Whe] to be 1890 C or higher. [76Don] detected the compound LiRh3, which they characterized by X-ray diffraction. The tentative calculated congruent melting point for LiRh3 is ~1670 C. The assessed Li-Rh diagram is consistent with the available data and is thermodynamically reasonable. 60Far: J.D. Farr, J.
