Europium(III) phosphate is one of the phosphates of europium, with the chemical formula of EuPO4. Other phosphates include europium(II) phosphate (Eu3(PO4)2) and europium(II,III) phosphate (Eu3Eu(PO4)3). [7]

Preparation

Europium phosphate can be produced by the sol-gel method of europium(III) oxide. First, europium(III) oxide was dissolved in an equimolar amount of nitric acid, and then an excess of 10% phosphoric acid was added. The process also requires the addition of ammonia to adjust the pH to 4 and form a gel, which is then washed with water and heated to 1200 °C for a day. [5] [6]

Properties

Europium(III) phosphate is isotypic to CePO4 and crystallizes in the monazite structure type, in the space group P21/n (no. 14, position 2) with the lattice parameters a = 668.13(10), b = 686.18(9), c = 634.91(8) pm and β = 103.96(1)° with four formula units per unit cell. [2] Its heat capacity is 111.5 J·K−1·mol−1 at 298.15 K, [5] [6] and its bulk modulus is 159(2) GPa. [8]
