Abstract
The sub-solidus phase relations in the ternary Nd-Dy-Cu system were determined for an isothermal section at 550 °C. The samples were prepared by arc-melting and subsequent annealing in a protective atmosphere for 120 h. The phases in the prepared samples were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction and scanning electron microscopy, and their composition was determined by energy-dispersive spectroscopy. The intermetallic compounds based on the Dy-Cu system are compatible with compounds based on Nd-Cu-based and exhibit a high degree of solid-state solubility. The crystal structures of the solid solutions and their transformations were determined in detail. In the Cu-rich part of the system, the compound DyCu7, which is stable above 700 °C according to literature data, was confirmed under the applied experimental conditions and is connected to NdCu6 by a tie line.
期刊介绍:
The design of industrial processes requires reliable thermodynamic data. CALPHAD (Computer Coupling of Phase Diagrams and Thermochemistry) aims to promote computational thermodynamics through development of models to represent thermodynamic properties for various phases which permit prediction of properties of multicomponent systems from those of binary and ternary subsystems, critical assessment of data and their incorporation into self-consistent databases, development of software to optimize and derive thermodynamic parameters and the development and use of databanks for calculations to improve understanding of various industrial and technological processes. This work is disseminated through the CALPHAD journal and its annual conference.
