Experimental investigation of nitrogenation process for heavy rare earth nitrides from their hydrides

We experimentally investigated the nitrogenation process of heavy rare earth (Gd, Tb, Dy, Ho and Er) hydrides dynamically by thermal analysis. The onset temperature of nitrogenation and the absolute value of nitrogenation enthalpy increased as the atomic number of the heavy rare earth elements incre...
