Abstract
The fcc-based (Zr, Nb)2Fe phase was previously recognized as a stable compound in the Zr–Nb–Fe system. Our study shows that (Zr, Nb)2Fe is an O-stabilized phase (Zr, Nb)4Fe2O. The results indicate that the (Zr, Nb)4Fe2O is based on the ternary Zr4Fe2Ox phase in the Zr–Fe–O system.This study has identified four four-phase equilibria consisting of [βZr + Zr(Nb, Fe)2 + (Zr, Nb)4Fe2O + liquid], [βZr + Zr(Nb, Fe)2 + αZr + (Zr, Nb)4Fe2O], [ZrFe2 + Zr(Nb, Fe)2 + (Zr, Nb)4Fe2O + liquid] and [αZr + Zr(Nb, Fe)2 + (Zr, Nb)4Fe2O + ZrO2] in the Zr–Nb–Fe(O) alloys at 1000 ℃. Based on the current experimental findings, the phase relationships of the Zr–Nb–Fe(O) system at 1000 ℃ close to the Zr–Fe side were established.
期刊介绍:
The most trusted journal for phase equilibria and thermodynamic research, ASM International''s Journal of Phase Equilibria and Diffusion features critical phase diagram evaluations on scientifically and industrially important alloy systems, authored by international experts.
The Journal of Phase Equilibria and Diffusion is critically reviewed and contains basic and applied research results, a survey of current literature and other pertinent articles. The journal covers the significance of diagrams as well as new research techniques, equipment, data evaluation, nomenclature, presentation and other aspects of phase diagram preparation and use.
Content includes information on phenomena such as kinetic control of equilibrium, coherency effects, impurity effects, and thermodynamic and crystallographic characteristics. The journal updates systems previously published in the Bulletin of Alloy Phase Diagrams as new data are discovered.
