Cubic zirconia ZrO2 and zircon ZrSiO4 are considered as perspective crystalline form for immobilization of U, Pu and other radionuclides [1, 2]. The present study was undertaken to determine temperature dependence of solid solution limits in these compounds using thermodynamic theory of solid solutions and available equilibrium data. Thermodynamic mixing properties has been evaluated by means of the relationship between Margules parameter W and interatomic distances R in end-members AX and BX of a solid solution (A1−xBx)XW = α(ΔR/R)2where ΔR = R(BX) - R(AX), R = (1−x) R(AX) + x R(BX), α is a constant for isotypic isostructural compounds. According to the Urusov's energetic theory of enthalpy of mixing [3] such relationships exist between parameters W, AR and R of solid solutions with similar bonds between isomorphous atoms and their neighbors

Abstract Decomposition morphologies of supersaturated spinel solid solutions in the quasi-binary system Co2TiO4-CoAl2O4 at 973 K show all pertinent features of spinodal decomposition. Since the decomposition morphology may not be considered as sufficient evidence for a spinodal process, the thermodynamics of the spinel solid solutions and the linear transport theory of spinodal decomposition were combined to corroborate the experimental results of the early decomposition reaction.Simultaneous ordering, a common property of ternary and higher nonequilibrium solid solutions, was also observed. These ordering processes occur locally in distinct regions of the spinel crystal. Moreover, the spinodal wavelength λ increases in time according to λ ∞ t, which is unusual and will be discussed in the light of cation diffusion in semiconducting oxides with two cation sublattices.
