Abstract:
A pressure-temperature (P-T) section of the phase equilibrium diagram for Nb2O5 has been determined. Four single phase regions, H-Nb2O5, B-Nb2O5, and two L-Nb2O5 areas, were characterized by x-ray powder diffraction data. The superstructure of L-Nb2O5 was indexed on the basis of similarities to the known superstructures of L-Ta2O5 and confirmed with single crystal electron diffraction data. The correct unit cell is orthorhombic with a = 6.168, b = 29.312, c = 3.938 Å, with the b axis 8 times the subcell (8 × 3.664 Å).

First, the attractive forces between molecules, which are stronger at higher densities and reduce the pressure, are considered by adding to the pressure a term equal to the square of the molar density multiplied by a positive coefficient a. Second, the volume...
