Tóm tắt

A nitride with the metal-atom arrangement of β manganese, which is designated as π phase, was confirmed to exist as an equilibrium phase in the ternary Cr-Ni-N system. A Cr-40 mass pct Ni binary alloy was nitrided under a pure nitrogen atmosphere at 1523 K to prepare a Cr-40Ni-5N alloy consisting of a nickel-rich face-centered cubic (fcc) γ phase and a dichromium nitride, Cr2N, designated as ε phase. Upon aging the alloy at 1273 K, the π phase was formed through a peritectoid reaction between the γ and ε phases. A volume fraction of the π phase reached 95 pct after 3.6 × 105 s, and no more change of the volume fraction was observed, even after 3.6 × 107 s aging. The chemical composition of the π phase was determined to be Cr13Ni7N4, whose lattice parameter wasa = 0.6323 nm. The π phase became unstable above 1473 K, which explains a previous unsuccessful attempt to produce the Cr-Ni-N ternary π phase by the replacement of molybdenum in Mo12Ni8N4 by chromium at 1473 K.
