Aluminium – Molybdenum – Uranium

Thermodynamic assessment of the U–Mo–Al system

“…The liquidus projection of the U-Mo-Al ternary system. (a) Reported by Alekseeva and Korniyenko [29], (b) calculated in this work. and UMo 2 Al 20 .…”

“…11. Compared to the experimental results [29], there are several different parts, especially the reactions concerning the Al-rich region, including the compounds U 6 Mo 4 Al 43 Fig. 11.…”

“…and UMo 2 Al 20 . And the Mo 2 Al 3 phase mentioned in [29] is not included in this work according to [21]. In consideration of the lack of new liquid experiment data of the Al-rich region and uncertain parts of the liquidus projection determinated by Petzow and Rexer [28], further experimental information is needed to verify the liquidus projection.…”

“…The calculated liquidus projection is compared with [29] in Fig. 11 and the calculated invariant reactions and temperatures involved liquid in the U-Mo-Al ternary system are summarized in Table 4.…”

“…Afterwards a revised version of liquidus projection was reported by Alekseeva and Korniyenko [29] based on the Petzow's data, with modifications to ensure compatibility the accepted boundary binary systems. Both of the two diagrams excluded the Al-rich part, so many phase relations and reactions are in need of further study.…”
