The phase equilibrium of the Ni–Al–La ternary system in a nickel-rich region was observed at 800 °C and 1000 °C using scanning electron microscopy backscattered electron imaging, energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry and X-ray diffractometry. The solubility of Al in the Ni5La phase was remeasured at 800 °C and 1000 °C. Herein, we report a new ternary phase, termed Ni2AlLa, confirmed at 800 °C. Its X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern was indexed and space group determined using Total Pattern Solution (TOPAS), and the suitable lattice parameters were fitted using the Pawley method and selected-area electron diffraction. Ni2AlLa crystallizes in the trigonal system with a space group R3 (no. 146), a = 4.1985 Å and c = 13.6626 Å. A self-consistent set of thermodynamic parameters for the Al–La and Ni–La binary systems and the Ni–Al–La ternary system includes a Ni2AlLa ternary phase, which was optimized using the CALPHAD method. The calculated thermodynamic and phase-equilibria data for the binary and ternary systems are consistent with the literature and measured data.

Phase Relationships

The phase relations in the Al-Y-Zr ternary system at 873 K have been investigated by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) in backscattered electron imaging (BSE) modes. Six three-phase equilibria are determined and no ternary compound is observed. In the meantime, first principle calculations are used to provide theoretical guidance to understand the experimental results.

AbstractIn the frame of the studies on the phase relations in the ternary system Li–Sb–Sn at 300 °C the new ternary phase Li8SbxSn3-x (0.3 ≤ x ≤ 1.0) was synthesized and characterized predominantly by single crystal and powder X-ray diffraction. The title compound crystallizes trigonally in the space group R$‾{3}$m (no. 166), the lattice parameters are a = 4.6962(11) Å and c = 31.536(6) Å. The crystal structure of Li8SbxSn3-x is described in the present paper. In addition, the stereochemical and topological relations to the phases with similar composition, namely Li13Sn5, Li5Sn2 as well as cubic Li3Sb, besides native Li are discussed.

Fabrics recovered from archaeological sites often are so badly degraded that fiber identification based on physical morphology is difficult. Although diagenetic changes may be viewed as destructive to factors necessary for the discernment of fiber information, changes occurring during any stage of a fiber's lifetime leave a record within the fiber's chemical and physical structure. These alterations may offer valuable clues to understanding the conditions of the fiber's growth, fiber preparation and fabric processing technology and conditions of burial or long term storage (1).Energy dispersive spectrometry has been reported to be suitable for determination of mordant treatment on historic fibers (2,3) and has been used to characterize metal wrapping of combination yarns (4,5). In this study, a technique is developed which provides fractured cross sections of fibers for x-ray analysis and elemental mapping. In addition, backscattered electron imaging (BSI) and energy dispersive x-ray microanalysis (EDS) are utilized to correlate elements to their distribution in fibers.

Critical Assessment

Phase diagrams and thermodynamic properties of five additive molten salt ternary systems and nine reciprocal molten salt ternary systems containing the ions Li+, Na+, [Formula: see text], OH− are calculated from the thermodynamic properties of their binary subsystems which were obtained previously by a critical assessment of the thermodynamic data and the phase diagrams in these binary systems. Thermodynamic properties of ternary liquid phases are estimated from the binary properties by means of the Conformal Ionic Solution Theory. The ternary phase diagrams are then calculated from these thermodynamic properties by means of computer programs designed for the purpose. It is found that a ternary phase diagram can generally be calculated in this way with a maximum error about twice that of the maximum error in the binary phase diagrams upon which the calculations are based. If, in addition, some reliable ternary phase diagram measurements are available, these can be used to obtain small ternary correction terms. In this way, ternary phase diagram measurements can be smoothed and the isotherms drawn in a thermodynamically correct way. The thermodynamic approach permits experimental data to be critically assessed in the light of thermodynamic principles and accepted solution models. A critical assessment of error limits on all the calculated ternary diagrams is made, and suggestions as to which composition regions merit further experimental study are given.

Dispersive Nature

A ternary system of lead niobate–lead zirconate–lead titanate with composition xPN–yPZ–(x-y)PT where x=0.5 and y=0.15, 0.25, and 0.35 known as PNZT has been prepared by conventional mixed oxide route at a temperature of 1100°C. The formation of the perovskite phase was established by X-ray diffraction analysis. The surface morphology studied by scanning electron microscopy shows the formation of fairly dense grains and elemental composition was confirmed by energy dispersive X-ray analysis. Dielectric properties like dielectric constant and dielectric loss (ε′ and tan⁡δ) indicate poly-dispersive nature of the material. The temperature dependent dielectric constant (ε′) curve indicates relaxor behaviour with two dielectric anomalies. The poly-dispersive nature of the material was analysed by Cole-Cole plots. The activation energy follows the Arrhenius law and is found to decrease with increasing frequency for each composition. The frequency dependence of ac conductivity follows the universal power law. The ac conductivity analysis suggests that hopping of charge carriers among the localized sites is responsible for electrical conduction. The ferroelectric studies reveal that these ternary systems are soft ferroelectric.

Binary Section

In the ternary system Ba-Al-Ge new intermetallic compounds which are lying on or close to the binary section BaAl2 -BaGe2 were synthesized from the elements and characterized on the basis of X-ray single crystal data. The Al-content x in the compounds BaAlxGe2−x forming the AlB2 structure type ranges from x = 1.4 [BaAl1.4Ge0.6 space group P6/mmm, a = 443.5(1), c = 512.4(1) pm, Z = 1, R1 = 0.0222] to the stoichiometric ordered compound BaAlGe [space group P6̅m2, a = 434.9(1), c = 513.6 pm, Z = 1, R1 = 0.0252]. In the two new Ge-rich barium intermetallics Ba5Al2Ge7 [space group C2/m, a = 859.8(4), b = 1031.5(4), c = 1847.8(6) pm, β = 103.23(3)°, Z = 4, R1 = 0.0553] and Ba7Al4Ge9 [space group Fmm2, a = 1032.7(5), b = 2559(2), c = 862.1(4) pm, Z = 4, R1 = 0.1197] complex Al/Ge polyanions are present, which consist of (1) Al/Ge-ribbons of condensed planar sixmembered rings comparable to the anions in Ba3Al2Ge2, and (2) [Ge/Al]5 clusters comparable to the anions in the tetrelides Ba3M5. The building units (1) and (2) are connected via Al-Ge bonds to form complex ribbons in the case of Ba5Al2Ge7 and sheets in the case of Ba7Al4Ge9. The electron count in the two compounds supports an interpretation of the structures according to the Zintl concept and the Wades rules. The small formal electron excess, caused by the incomplete transfer of charge from Ba towards the Al/Ge polyanions, decreases with the Ge content of the compound.

The isothermal section of the Fe-Zn-Nb ternary system at 600 oC was determined using the equilibrated alloys with the aid of diffusion couple approach. The specimens were investigated by means of SEM-EDS analysis, SEM-WDS analysis and X-ray diffraction. A true ternary phase T was identified, this phase is in equilibrium with ε, NbZn3, Γ, δ, and η - Zn phases respectively in the system. The solubility of Nb in η - Zn and δ phase is limited and that of Zn in ε is up to 10.0%.

The Al-Nb-Sn phase diagram was studied experimentally in the Nb-rich region to provide important phase equilibria information for alloy design of Nb-silicide based materials for aero engine applications. Three alloys were produced: Nb-17Al-17Sn, Nb-33Al-13Sn and Nb-16Al-20Sn (at.%). As-cast and heat-treated alloys (900 and 1200 °C) were analysed using XRD (X-ray diffraction) and SEM/EDS (scanning electron microscopy/ electron dispersive x-ray spectroscopy). Tin showed a high solubility in Nb2Al, reaching up to 21 at.% in the Sn-rich areas, substituting for Al atoms. Tin and Al also substituted for each other in the A15 phases (Nb3Al and Nb3Sn). Tin showed limited solubility in NbAl3, not exceeding 3.6 at.% as it substituted Al atoms. The solubility of Al in NbSn2 varied from 4.8 to 6.8 at.%. A ternary phase, Nb5Sn2Al with the tI32 W5Si3 crystal structure, was found to be stable. This phase was observed in the 900 °C heat-treated samples, but not in the 1200 °C heated samples.
