The New Laves Phase Na2Ba

After preliminary investigations o f the B a -N a N system, resulting in the discovery of the first sub-nitride NaBa3N [1], we decided to examine more closely the intermetallic phases formed by the two metals, leading to the discovery of the new Laves phase N a2Ba. The literature contains a variety o f conflicting reports concerning N a -B a intermetallic phases. The standard references for bin...

Factors affecting the room-temperature mechanical properties of TiCr2-base Laves phase alloys

Various effects on the room-temperature mechanical properties of TiCr2-base alloys have been assessed in efforts to improve the toughness of Laves phase intermetallics (AB2). Systematic studies were performed on: (i) single-phase stoichiometric and nonstoichiometric TiCr2, (ii) TiCr2-base ternary Laves phases, and (iii) two-phase binary alloys containing TiCr2. In order to make quantitative com...

HfCo2 Laves phase intermetallics—part I: solubility limits and defect mechanisms

Solubility limits and constitutional defects in Laves phase intermetallics are investigated with the C15 HfCo2 system. Several binary alloy compositions based on HfCo2 are characterized by optical and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron microprobe analysis (EPMA), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and density measurements. Rietveld refinements of XRD scans are used to determine lattice constant...
