Abstract

The effect of nonstoichiometry and ordering on the lattice constant a B1 of the basic lattice of vanadium carbide VC y (0.65 < y < 0.875) is studied. A change in the lattice constant of disordered carbide VC y at the reduction of the carbon content is considered using the direction of static displacements of atoms near a vacancy. A model for the calculation of the basic lattice constant a B1 of vanadium carbide is proposed taking into account nonstoichiometry and ordering. It is shown that the ordering of vanadium carbide VC y with the formation of V6C5 and V8C7 superstructures results in an increase in the basic lattice constant as compared to disordered carbide.
