Abstract
The vanadium-rich portion of the V-Ni system was investigated by thermal analysis, microscopic examination, and X-ray diffraction studies and a phase diagram is proposed. The vanadium solvus was found to exhibit a marked temperature dependence increasing from 6.8 at. pct Ni at 800°C to 24.0 at. pct Ni at 1280°C. A compound having a substituted V3Ni (A15) type structure was shown to occur at the substoichiometric composition of 22 to 23 at. pct Ni. It forms peritectoidally at 900°C with an enthalpy of formation of 1595 cal per mole.
