Ternary Phase Equilibria in Transition Metal-Boron-Carbon-Silicon Systems. Part 1. Binary Systems. Volume 12. Revision of the Vanadium-Carbon and Niobium-Carbon Systems

Abstract

The binary systems vanadium-carbon and niobium-carbon were reinvestigated by means of X-ray, melting point, DTA, and metallographic techniques on chemically and thermally characterized specimens; revised phase diagrams for both binary systems are given. In addition, recent investigations have also shown that some of the intermediate phases exhibit a more complex thermal behavior than previously anticipated. Thus, for example, the thermodynamic evaluation of the equilibria in ternary metal-carbon systems pointed to the existence of sublattice order-disorder transformations in the Me2C phases. These indications have, in the meantime, been confirmed experimentally by X ray and differential-thermoanalytical means.
