Abstract
The phase equilibria in the Co-W-Zr ternary system at 1200 and 1300 °C were experimentally investigated by electron probe microanalysis and x-ray diffraction. Totally eight three-phase and seven three-phase regions were confirmed in the 1200 and 1300 °C isothermal sections, respectively. There are two small Liquid regions at 1300 °C, but only one was found at 1200 °C. The Co11Zr2 phase was found at 1200 °C, and dissolved at 1300 °C. The solubility limit of Zr in the (αCo) is about 1.0 at.% at 1200 °C and 3.0 at.% at 1300 at.% and too much Zr addition in Co-based alloys may introduce the Co11Zr2, Co23Zr6 or Co2Zr_Laves phases. The addition of W in the (αCo) should be less than 14.9 at.% at 1200 °C and 15.8 at.% at 1300 °C to prevent the brittle Co7W6 phase.
