INVESTIGATIONS CONCERNING Y-MN AND GD-MN ALLOYS PREPARED BY THEAMALGAM PROCESS,

Abstract

By continuing the efforts to refine all methods, for which many improvements have been necessary, the whole amalgam process has been developed to a safe, reliable method. The Y-Mn system was chosen to test the whole procedure. Approximately 40 alloys with 7 different concentrations (20 - 90 w.% Mn) were prepared. The alloys consist of powders, which are free of contaminations and are in an equilibrium. The compounds YMn2 and YMn4 have been studied intensively. YMn2 is cubic, the lattice spacing (a = 7,692(5) plus or minus 0,001 A angstroms) was determined with far better accuracy than has been done up to now. (Author)
