Abstract

Phase equil. of Al-?Ge-?Ti have been investigated using SEM (SEM)?, powder X-?ray diffraction (XRD) and DTA (DTA)?. Partial isothermal sections at 400 °C, 520 °C and 1000 °C were obtained with focus on the titanium-?poor part up to 50 at.?% titanium. Three ternary compds. were found to exist. The compd. Al3GeTi (t1) crystallizes in an own structure type (P4?/nmm, tP10)?. Two structurally closely related compds. were found at the compn. Al1-?xGe1+xTi: t2 (0.61 = x = 0.73)?, Al4Si5Zr3-?type, I41/amd, tI24 and t'2 (0.36 = x = 0.57)?, Si2Zr-?type, Cmcm, oC12. DTA data were used to construct a ternary reaction scheme (Scheil diagram) up to approx. 1300 °C, a partial liquidus projection and two vertical sections, at 10 at.?% Ti and at a const. Al:Ti ratio of 1:1. A total no. of 12 ternary invariant reactions were identified.
