Abstract

Phase formation in CaF₂–HoF₃ system has been studied by coprecipitation followed by X-ray powder diffraction. Aqueous nitrate solutions have been used as initial substances, while hydrofluoric acid has been employed as fluorinating agent. Formation of hydrated nanophases: solid solution Ca_1–xHo_xF_{2 + x} (х ≤ 0.1) and HoF3 has been revealed. Dehydration proceeds on heating to 600°C.
