Abstract

Phase relations of the system Fe2O3-Y2O3-Al2O3 were studied at 1500° and 1525°C in air and in oxygen at 1 atm. Isothermal-isobaric sections indicate that the liquids phase field at 1500°C is larger in oxygen than in air. In either atmosphere, at this temperature, the composition of the garnet phase in equilibrium with a liquid is enriched in aluminum relative to the liquid. In the same manner, yttrium orthoferrite is enriched in aluminum relative to garnet in equilibrium between these two phases. The limit of solid solubility of excess iron-aluminum and/or yttrium in the garnet phase Y3Fe4AlO12 was determined by X-ray diffraction techniques to be 0.2 ± 0.05 mole % Y2.O3.
