Abstract
Electron-probe microanalysis has been applied to the compositions of single-phase intermetallide layers and two-phase reaction zones at the interfaces between liquid aluminum saturated with alloy components at 700°C and iron-nickel alloys having iron contents of 90, 75, 50, 25, 20, 15, and 10 mass %. Binary intermetallides (FeAl3, Fe2Al7, NiAl3, and NiAl2) and a ternary intermetallide FeNiAl9 are formed. All the binary compounds dissolve considerable amounts of the third element (Ni or Fe) and have appreciable homogeneity ranges. The dissolution of the Fe−Ni alloy in the pure liquid aluminum reduces the total thicknesses of the intermetallide layers growing between the alloy and the aluminum by a factor 3–5 by comparison with a saturated aluminum melt.
