The enthalpies of mixing in liquid alloys of the binary Cu-Eu and ternary Al-Cu-Eu systems were determined over a wide range of compositions by means of isoperibolic calorimetry in the temperature range 1 300 - 1450 K. The enthalpies of mixing in the Cu-Eu system demonstrate small exothermic effects (ΔHmin = -4.1 ± 0.5 kJ · mol-1at xCu = 0.70). The measurements for the liquid ternary Al- Cu-Eu alloys were performed along five sections (xCu/ xEu = 0.70/0.30; 0.50/0.50 and 0.27/0.73 for xAl changed from 0 up to 0.30 and xAl/xEu = 0.20/0.80 and 0.47/0.53 for xCu changed from 0 up to 0.30). The enthalpies of mixing in the ternary system were found to be exothermic and increasing in absolute values from the Al corner towards the Al0.40Cu0.60-Al0.60Eu0.40section and from the constituent binary Cu-Eu system towards the same section. The minimum value of the integral enthalpy of mixing is expected in the vicinity of the Al0.6Eu0.4composition of the binary constituent Al-Eu system (about -23.00 kJ · mol-1).
