Effect of Cr on electronic and magnetic properties of χ-carbide (Fe,Cr)5C2

Synthesis and Surface Chemistry of Bimetallic Chromium-Iron Carbide (CrxFe1-x)7C3 Solid Solution Nanoparticles

“…39 The Cr-Fe-C alloy materials have been widely studied for applications in the steel industry due to their oxidation resistance properties. [43][44][45][46] The Cr-Fe-C ternary system can form several bimetallic carbides including (Cr, Fe) 3 C, (Cr, Fe) 7 C 3 , (Cr, Fe) 23 C 6 , and (Cr, Fe) 5 C 2 . 43,44,46 Due to the presence of several bimetallic carbide structures, synthesizing these materials has been extremely challenging and typically results in phase separation including both single metal and bimetallic phases present in the products with little control over composition in the bimetallic species.…”

Most of these bimetallic carbides have been calculated or tested for their electronic and magnetic properties as well as their fatigue wear behaviors.…”
