RESUMO

In this work a re-investigation of the solubility limits of the (Nb), Nb3Al, Nb2Al and the Nb-rich side of the NbAl3 phases on the Nb-Al system is presented. Alloys in the binary fields ((Nb)+Nb3Al, Nb3Al+Nb2Al and Nb2Al+NbAl3) were arc-melted, and then equilibrated at 1000, 1200 and 1400 ºC. The phases were confirmed via X-ray powder diffractometry, and their compositions were determined via EPMA measurements. The results showed agreement with the literature concerning the solubility limits of (Nb), Nb3Al and NbAl3 phases, while important differences in the values were found for the Nb2Al phase. In addition, the lattice parameters of the Nb2Al phase were determined via Rietveld refinement. This new set of more accurate experimental information indicates that a thermodynamic reassessment is necessary to precisely describe this system.
