The phase equilibria and crystal structures of mixed oxides in the ternary system La 2 O 3 -Mn 3 O 4 -NiO are studied at 1100 ° C in air. The projection of the La-Mn-Ni-O phase diagram at 1100 ° C and = 0.21 × 10 5 Pa onto the metal-composition triangle is found to comprise 12 phase fields. The lattice parameters of La 2 NiO 4 (sp. gr. I 4/ mmm ), La 3 Ni 2 O 7 (sp. gr. Cmcm ), La 4 Ni 3 O 10 (sp. gr. Cmca ), and La 1 + x Mn 1 -x -y Ni y O 3 solid solutions (sp. gr. Pnma , -0.04 ≤ x ≤ 0.05, 0 ≤ y ≤ 0.4) are determined. The composition stability limits of La 4 Ni 3 -y Mn y O 10 solid solutions are 0 < y ≤ 0.05. With increasing Ni concentration in La 1 + x Mn 1 -x -y Ni y O 3 , the metal nonstoichiometry decreases from -0.04 ≤ x ≤ 0.05 at y = 0 to x = 0 at y = 0.4. p O 2
