The solidification of Al–Ti–Pd alloys is studied by light optical and scanning electron microcopy, electron microprobe analysis, X-ray diffraction, and differential thermal analysis in the composition range 0–50 at.% Pd in the Al–AlPd–TiPd–Ti partial system. The liquidus surface projection, melting diagram, and Scheil diagram are constructed for the first time. Eleven regions of primary solidification of ternary compounds, solid solutions based on binary phases, and Ti and Al components are found to exist. The τ3 phase melts congruently while τ1 is formed incongruently.
Eleven four-phase invariant equilibria involving a liquid phase exist in the system: two of them are congruent and nine incongruent. The invariant four-phase reactions occur in the temperature range between 630 and 1425–1456°C.
