Abstract
The temperature dependence of molar heat capacity for Rb2FeTi(PO4)3 phosphate was investigated between T = 6 and 650 K by precision adiabatic vacuum and differential scanning calorimetry in this research. The anomaly was observed in the heat capacity curve, and its character was explained by magnetic disorder–order phase transition at T below 6 K. The standard thermodynamic functions \( C_{{{\text{p}},{\text{m}}}}^{\text{o}} ,\;\left[ {H_{\text{m}}^{\text{o}} (T) - H_{\text{m}}^{\text{o}} (6)} \right],\;\left[ {S_{\text{m}}^{\text{o}} (T) - S_{\text{m}}^{\text{o}} (6)} \right],\;\varPhi_{\text{m}}^{\text{o}} \) of Rb2FeTi(PO4)3 within the range T → 6–650 K were calculated. The low-temperature heat capacity analysis, performed based on the Debye theory and multifractal model, leads to the conclusion of framework structural topology of the studied phosphate.
