Abstract

The pressure–volume equations of state of palladium and rhodium statically compressed in neon are presented. Vinet fits give parameters for palladium: V0 = 58.678(73) Å3⁠, B0 = 189.3(30) GPa, B'0 = 5.473(63)⁠, and rhodium: V0 = 55.062(63) Å3⁠, B0 = 241.3(65)  GPa, B'0 = 5.34(24)⁠. Both metals are observed to react with hydrocarbons under pressure to form hydrides. Existing equations of state are discussed with regard to potential inadvertent hydrogen contamination as a source for discrepancies and anomalous fitted parameters.
