Twenty-three V-Ni-C alloys were produced and analysed in the as-cast condition, as well as after annealing at 1000°C for 1000 h. The phases were identified using SEM-EDX and XRD. The extensions of the binary phases were determined. The liquidus surface projection was derived from the overall compositions, primary phases and the solidification sequences. Four invariant reactions on solidification were found. The isothermal section at 1000°C was also derived, which included the * Ni 2 V 4 C ternary phase.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
