Al-Mn-Zn ternary system is experimentally investigated at 400°C using diffusion couples and key alloys. Phase relationships and homogeneity ranges are determined for binary and ternary compounds using EPMA, SEM/EDS, and XRD. Reported ternary compound T3 (Al11Mn3Zn2) is confirmed in this study and is denoted as τ2 in this paper. Two new ternary compounds (τ1 and τ3) are observed in this system at 400°C. τ1 is determined as a stoichiometric compound with the composition of Al31Mn8Zn11. τ3 has been found to have homogeneity range of AlxMnyZnz (x=9–13 at%; y=11–15 at%; z=75–77 at%). The binary compounds Al4Mn and Al11Mn4 exhibit limited solid solubility of around 6 at% and 4 at% Zn, respectively. Terminal solid solution Al8Mn5 is found to have maximum ternary solubility of about 10 at% Zn. In addition, ternary solubility of Al-rich β-Mn′ at 400°C is determined as 4 at% Zn. Zn-rich β-Mn′′ has a ternary solubility of 3 at% Al. The solubility of Al in Mn5Zn21 is measured as 5 at%. Based on the current experimental results, the isothermal section of Al-Mn-Zn ternary system at 400°C has been constructed.

The isothermal section of the Ni-Mn-Sb ternary system at 773 K was measured by means of 117 alloys which were analyzed by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersion spectroscopy (EDS), and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA) techniques. The existence of 7 binary compounds, namely NiMn, Mn2Sb, MnSb, NiSb2, NiSb, Ni5Sb2, Ni3Sb and 2 ternary compounds, namely Ni2MnSb and NiMnSb were confirmed for this isothermal section. The four binary compounds Ni3Sb (Cu3Ti structure, Pmmn space group), Ni5Sb2 (Ni5Sb2-type structure, C2 space group), NiSb2 (FeS2-type structure, Pnnm space group) and Mn2Sb (Cu2Sb-type structure, P4/nmm space group) in the binary systems Ni-Sb and Mn-Sb were stoichiometric compounds, the homogeneity ranges of which were negligible. However the five single phases in the Ni-Mn system and the two binary compounds MnSb and NiSb showed more or less homogeneity ranges formed by substitution of Mn and Sb for Ni atom. The Heusler compound ? (Ni2MnSb) has L21-type ordered structure with space group Fm-3m, a = 0.6017 nm. And the crystal structure for the Half-Heusler compound ? (NiMnSb) is C1b-type (F-43m) with a = 0.5961 nm. The approximate homogeneity ranges of the two ternary compounds ? and ? at 773 K were investigated.

The crystal structures of the binary compounds ZrAl3 and HfAl3 at 600°C belong to the structure type ZrAl3 (Pearson symbol tI16, space group I4/mmm, a = 4.00930(11), c = 17.2718(7) Å for ZrAl3 and a = 3.9849(3), c = 17.1443(15) Å for HfAl3). Substitution of Ge atoms for Al atoms in ZrAl3 and HfAl3 led to the formation of the ternary compounds ZrAl2.52(1)Ge0.48(1) and HfAl2.40(1)Ge0.60(1), respectively, where the latter is probably part of a solid solution extending from the high-temperature modification of HfAl3. The crystal structures belong to the tetragonal structure type ht-TiAl3 (tI8, I4/mmm, a = 3.92395(11), c = 9.0476(4) Å for ZrAl2.52Ge0.48 and a = 3.9021(2), c = 8.9549(8) Å for HfAl2.40Ge0.60). The structure types ZrAl3 and ht-TiAl3 are both members of the family of close-packed structures.

Abstract Phase relationships in the Ce-Nd-B ternary system at 773 K were investigated by means of X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy techniques. Six borides, i. e. CeB4, CeB6, NdB4, NdB6, NdB66 and Nd2B5 are confirmed in this work. No ternary compound was observed. CeB4 and NdB4 were discovered to form the continuous solid solution phase (Ce,Nd)B4, CeB6 and NdB6 also form the solid solution phase (Ce,Nd)B6. The maximum solid solubility of Ce in (Ce,Nd)2B5 phase is 46.5 at.%. The isothermal section of the Ce-Nd-B ternary system at 773 K consists of 3 three-phase regions, 7 two-phase regions and 7 single- phase regions.

The subsolidus phase relations of the Dy-Fe-Al system have been investigated by means of X-ray powder diffraction. There are 5 ternary compounds, 10 binary compounds, and 21 three-phase regions in this system. The solid-solution regions of Dy(Fe1−xAlx)2, DyFe3−xAlx, Dy2(Fe1−xAlx)17, and DyFe12−xAlx have been determined based on the dependence of their unit-cell parameters on the Al content.

The interaction of the components in the Ho-Cu-Sn ternary system was investigated at 670 K over the whole concentration range using X-ray diffraction and EPM analyses. Four ternary compounds were formed in the Ho–Cu–Sn system at 670 K: HoCuSn (LiGaGe type, space group P63mc), Ho3Cu4Sn4 (Gd3Cu4Ge4-type, space group Immm), HoCu5Sn (CeCu5Au-type, space group Pnma), and Ho1.9Cu9.2Sn2.8 (Dy1.9Cu9.2Sn2.8-type, space group P63/mmc). The formation of the interstitial solid solution based on HoSn2 (ZrSi2-type) binary compound up to 5 at. % Cu was found.

The interaction of the components in the Gd-Mn-Sn ternary system was studied using the methods of X-ray and microstructure analyses, in the whole concentration range. The phase diagrams of the Gd-Mn-Sn system were constructed at 873 and 673 K. At both temperature of investigation the Gd-Mn-Sn system is characterized by existence of two ternary compounds: GdMn6Sn6 (MgFe6Ge6 structure type, space group P6/mmm) and Gd4Mn4Sn7 (Zr4Co4Ge7 structure type, space group I4/mmm). The formation of the interstitial solid solution GdMnхSn2 based on GdSn2 (ZrSi2-type) binary compound was found up to 10 at. % Mn at 873 K and 673 K. The existence of the substitutional solid solution based on GdMn2 (MgCu2-type) was observed up to 5 at.% Sn and 3 at. % Sn at 873 K and 673 K, respectively.

AbstractThe isothermal section of the Tm–Ni–In system at T = 870 K was constructed. Nine ternary compounds: Tm10Ni9In20, TmNi1–0.60In1–1.40, Tm2Ni2In, Tm2Ni1.78In, Tm5Ni2In4, Tm11Ni4In9, Tm4.83Ni2In1.17, Tm6Ni2In and Tm14Ni3In3 exist in the system at the temperature of investigation. Solid solutions with In/Ni and Tm/In mixing were noticed for numerous compounds. A broad substitution of Ni for In was observed for TmNi1–0.60In1–1.40, and of Tm for In for the TmNi2–TmNi4In section. An interstitial solid solution TmxNiIn, based on binary equiatomic NiIn, extends up to 8 at.% Tm (x = 0.17). The magnetic properties of TmNiIn, Tm2Ni2In and Tm5Ni2In4 are also reviewed.

A complete understanding of the solid-state phase equilibria of the ternary Al–Sn–Y system is essential for the development of both Al-based structural materials and Sn-based lead-free solders. In this work, the phase relationships in the Al–Sn–Y ternary system at 473 K were investigated mainly by means of X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy disperse spectroscopy (EDS) analysis. The existence of 12 binary compounds, namely Sn3Y, Sn5Y2, Sn2Y, Sn10Y11, Sn4Y5, Sn3Y5, AlY2, Al3Y5, Al2Y3, AlY, Al2Y and α–Al3Y, was confirmed. Controversial phases (Sn5Y2 and Al3Y5) were found in this work. This isothermal section consisted of 15 single-phase regions, 27 two-phase regions and 13 three-phase regions. No ternary compounds were found and none of the other phases in this system revealed a remarkable solid solution at 473 K.

Twelve ternary compounds, namely ErCoIn5 (HoCoGa5-type), Er6Co17.92In14 (Lu6Co17.92In14-type), ErCo4In (MgCu4Sn-type), Er2CoIn8 (Ho2CoGa8-type), Er10Co9In20 (Ho10Ni9In20-type), Er3Co1.87In4 (Lu3Co1.87In4-type), ErCoIn, Er11Co4In9 (Nd11Pd4In9-type), Er11Co3In6, Er8CoIn3 (Pr8CoGa3-type), Er6Co2.19In0.81 (Ho6Co2Ga-type), and Er13.83Co2.88In3.10 (Lu14Co2In3-type) exist in the Er-Co-In system at this temperature. The crystal structure of the Er8CoIn3 compound was determined by means of X-ray powder method (Pr8CoGa3-type, P63mc space group, a = 1.02374(2) nm, c = 0.68759(2) nm). Almost none of the binary compounds dissolve the third component. The exception is the existence of the solid solution based on ErCo3 binary compound, which dissolves up to 8 at.% of In.

Intermetallic formation at 425°C in the aluminum–copper system has been studied by scanning electron microscopy using welded diffusion couples. Several Al–Cu phases predicted by the equilibrium phase diagram of the elements and voids taking place in the diffusion zone have been detected in the couples. The predominant phases were found to be Al 2 Cu 3 and the solid solution of Al in Cu, α. The growth of the intermetallic layer obeyed the parabolic law.
