Abstract

Abstract Isotherms of the Ir-rich portion of the Ir–Al–X (X: Ti, Zr, Hf) systems are presented. In all of the isotherms three-phase equilibrium is found and no ternary compound is observed. Solid solubility of each phase is confirmed by chemical analysis by wavelength dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (WDS). The direction of the solubility lobe of L12–Ir3X with Al addition is explained in terms of the nearest neighbor interactions. Liquidus surfaces are also established by taking into account the microstructure of as-cast alloys, differential thermal analysis (DTA) data, Ir–X binary phase diagrams reported previously and the phase equilibria of the Ir–Al binary system investigated in the present study.
