Hartree-Fock calculations with the SKX Skyrme interaction are carried out to obtain α-decay Q values for deformed nuclei above 208Pb assuming axial symmetry. The results for even-even nuclei are compared with the experiment and with the previous calculations. Predictions are made for α-decay Q values and half-lives of even-even superheavy nuclei. The results are also compared for the recently discovered odd-even chain starting at Z=112 and N=165.
