Abstract

A constant-volume Sieverts’ method was used to determine the solubility of nitrogen in liquid nickel. This method has been used for the first time on this type of material. It was found that the solubility of nitrogen in pure nickel at 1600 °C and 1 atm is equal to 0.0020 wt pct (with an experimental error of ± 0.0002 pct). The solubility increases with increasing temperature. The temperature coefficient of nitrogen solubility within the temperature range from 1500 °C to 1750 °C is equal to 1.6 × 10−6 wt pct/°C. The solution of nitrogen in pure nickel at 1600 °C and pressures up to 1 atm was found to obey Sieverts’ law.
