Magnetocaloric effect and thermal conductivity of Gd(OH)3 and Gd2O(OH)4(H2O)2.

TLDR
Investigation of two gadolinium hydroxides reveals that the thermal conductivity for 1 is significantly better than that for 2, and magnetic studies indicate that both 1 and 2 exhibit antiferromagnetic interaction.
