ABSTRACTIn order to clarify the phase stability of E21-type intermetallic carbides, the maximum solid solubility of carbon in Ni3AlC1-x was evaluated by taking into account the strain energy and the chemical energy for the formation of the Ni6C cluster (EM6C). It was found that the maximum carbon content calculated was 0 at.%C at EM6C≥0, 3.5 at.%C at EM6C = -5 kJ/mol, 6.5 at.%C at EM6C = -10 kJ/mol, 10 at.%C at EM6C = -15 kJ/mol and 13 at.%C at EM6C = -20 kJ/mol, respectively. Experimentally determined maximum carbon contents in Ni3Al in the literature can be explained when EM6C is ranged from -5 to -15 kJ/mol, and the solid solubility is found to be sensitive to EM6C. The attractive interaction between Ni and C seems to be due to covalent bonding. Similar attractive chemical interaction between transition metals and carbon must stabilize E21 phases.

Collected data of the gross lattice distortion in solid solutions of the First Long Period elements in each other and in copper are given together with similar data for B group solutes in Cu, Ag, and Au. It is shown that there is no correlation between the size of the lattice distortion and the solid solubility of the First Long Period transition metals in copper.

The effects of Bi substitution for Nd in Ba6−3xNd8+2xTi18O54 (x = 2/3) solid solution upon the microstructures and microwave dielectric properties were investigated. The solid solubility limit of Bi in Ba6−3xNd8+2xTi18O54 (x = 2/3) solid solution was about 15 mol%, the same as that for x = 0.5, and densification of the present solid solutions could be performed well at lower temperatures. However, the variation tendency of microwave dielectric properties with composition in the present ceramics quite differed from that for x = 0.5: (1) The temperature coefficient of resonant frequency in the present ceramics showed a continuous variation from positive to negative and did not indicate extreme value at the solid solubility limit. (2) Near-zero temperature coefficient of resonant frequency combined with high-ε and high-Qf values could be obtained in the present ceramics, while that for x = 0.5 had a lower limit of +15 ppm/°C. (3) The dielectric constant also showed a continuous increase for the present compositions, while that in x = 0.5 had an extreme at solid solubility limit. Ceramics with composition of Ba6−3x(Nd0.85,Bi0.15)8+2xTi18O54 (x = 2/3) showed excellent dielectric properties of ε = 99.1, Qf = 5290 GHz, and τf = −5.5 ppm/°C.

Mechanical alloying (MA) is a potential processing method for various equilibrium and non-equilibrium alloy phases such as supersaturated solid solution, metastable crystalline, amorphous, quasi-crystalline phases, nanostructures. Compared to conventional high temperature material processing such as melting and casting, improvement of solid solubility limit results from mechanical alloying at room temperature. The solid solubility increases with increase in milling time due to enhanced stress assisted atomic diffusion during particle refinement and reaches a saturation level at higher milling time. The extension of solid solubility is attributed to thermodynamic, dynamic or kinetic factors such as high dislocation density due to severe plastic deformation during particle refinement and enhanced diffusivity during MA. The review aims to discuss the insight of MA than other non-equilibrium processing in terms of achieving higher solubility, reasoning and mechanism of solubility improvement during MA of different alloy systems.
