Phase Equilibria Investigation of Binary, Ternary, And Higher Order Systems. Part Viii. The Structure of a Ternary Phase T3C2 in the V-Ta-C System

摘要

The crystal structure of Ta2VC2 was determined from X-ray powder photographs. The phase is stable from room temperature to above 2600C. The homogeneity range of 1650C varies between the limits (Ta1.80 to 2.04, V1.20 to 0.96)C1.74 to 1.80; the phase is thus substantially deficient in carbon.
