Experimental investigation of the Al-Fe-Nd system at 773 K

The full text of Journal of Phase Equilibria and Diffusion article by Hui Feng, Hongmei Chen, Yifang Ouyang, Xiaoma Tao, Jianlie Liang, and Yong Du is offered to readers of AM&P eNews free of charge through March 31. In the past two decades, the investigations for the Al-Fe-Nd system were mainly concerned about its magnetic properties and large amorphous formation ability of the compounds and alloys. In the present work, the entire isothermal section of Al-Fe-Nd at 773 K was determined by means of x-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) with energy dispersive analysis (EDX) and optical microscopy (OM).  Learn More ...
