Title: Physicochemical properties of high-temperature solutions of the systems BaO-B/sub 2/O/sub 3/-Fe/sub 2/O/sub 3/ and BaO-B/sub 2/O/sub 3/-BaF/sub 2/-Fe/sub 2/O/sub 3/ suitable for the growth of BaFe/sub 12/O/sub 19/ single crystals

The systems BaO-B/sub 2/O/sub 3/-Fe/sub 2/O/sub 3/ and BaO-B/sub 2/O/sub 3/-BaF/sub 2/-Fe/sub 2/O/sub 3/ have been investigated and the concentration and temperature regions of stability of the Ba Fe/sub 12/O/sub 19/ phase in them are determined with a view to choosing suitable solvents and growth conditions of barium hexaferrite single crystals. The temperature dependencies of the dynamic viscosity of solutions of these systems are studied. It is shown that solutions containing BaF/sub 2/ have considerably lower viscosity values. The density and volatility of the solutions at their saturation temperatures are determined. On the basis of the data obtained, an appropriate solvent composition from the system BaO-B/sub 2/O/sub 3/-BaF/sub 2/ is proposed.
