On the Quaternary System Ti-Fe-Ni-Al
Source abstract
Abstract
The homogeneity ranges of the Laves phases and phase relations concerning the Laves phases in the quaternary system Ti-Fe-Ni-Al at 900 °C were defined by x-ray powder diffraction (XPD) data and electron probe microanalysis (EPMA). Although at higher temperatures the Laves phase forms a continuous solid solution, two separate homogeneity fields of TiFe2-based (denoted by λFe) and Ti(TiNiAl)2-based (denoted by λNi) Laves phases appear at 900 °C. The relative locations of Laves phases, G phase, Heusler phase, and CsCl-type phase as well as the associated tie-tetrahedra were experimentally established in the quaternary for 900 °C and presented in three-dimensional (3D) view. Furthermore, a partial isothermal section TiFe2-TiAl2-TiNi2 was constructed, and a connectivity scheme, derived for equilibria involving Laves phases in the Ti-Fe-Ni-Al quaternary system at 900 °C was derived. As a characteristic feature of the quaternary phase diagram, the solid solubility of fourth elements in both the TiFe2-based and Ti(NiAl)2-based Laves phases is limited at 900 °C and is dependent on the ternary Laves phase composition. A maximum solubility of about 8 at.% Ni is reached for composition Ti33.3Fe33.3Al33.4. Structural details have been evaluated from powder x-ray and neutron diffraction data for (i) the Ti-Fe-Ni ternary and the Ti-Fe-Ni-Al quaternary Laves phases (MgZn2-type, space group: P63/mmc) and (ii) the quaternary G phase. Atom site occupation behavior for all phases from the quaternary system corresponds to that of the ternary systems. For the quaternary Laves phase, Ti occupies the 4f site and additional Ti (for compositions higher than 33.3 at.%Ti) preferably enters the 6h site. Aluminum and (Fe,Ni) share the 6h and the 2a sites. The compositional dependence of unit cell dimensions, atomic coordinates, and interatomic distances for the Laves phases from the quaternary system is discussed. For the quaternary cubic G phase, a centrosymmetric as well as a noncentrosymmetric variety was observed depending on the composition: from combined x-ray and neutron powder diffraction measurements Ti33.33Fe13.33Ni10.67Al42.67 was found to adopt the lower symmetry with space group $$ F\bar 43m $$ .
