Abstract
Abstract Isothermal sections at 800, 1000, and 1150 °C as well as a tentative partial liquidus surface of the ternary Fe–Al–Zr system were established by means of electron-probe microanalysis, X-ray diffraction, differential thermal analysis, and light-optical as well as scanning electron microscopy. The most prominent features of the ternary phase diagram are the extended homogeneity ranges of the Laves phases. By continuous substitution of Fe by Al, the structure changes three times starting from the cubic C15 structure of Fe2Zr to hexagonal C14 (λ1) back to cubic C15 (λ2) and again to hexagonal C14 (Al2Zr). The various Laves phase fields are separated by very small two-phase fields. Besides the Laves phases λ1 and λ2, three more ternary intermetallic phases were found, whose homogeneity ranges have been determined for the first time. In addition, new results concerning the homogeneity ranges of intermetallic phases in the binary subsystems Fe–Al and Al–Zr are reported. The solubilities of the third com...
