Abstract
A projection has been constructed for the solidus surface in the Al2O3 - ZrO2 - Nd2O3 phase diagram on the plane of the concentration triangle, which consists of six isothermal three-phase fields corresponding to two nonvariant equilibria of eutectic type and four nonvariant ones of peritectic type, together with five lineated surfaces for the end of crystallization of the monovariant eutectics. The highest solidus temperature in the system is 2710°C, the melting point of pure ZrO2 , and the least is 1675°C, the temperature of the ternary eutectic L β + F + NA. No ternary phases and no appreciable regions of solid solutions based on their components and the binary compounds have been observed. Data on the adjoining binary systems, liquidus and solidus surfaces allowed for construction of the phase equilibrium diagram together with a reaction scheme for the equilibrium crystallization of alloys in the Al2O3 - ZrO2 - Nd2O3 system.
