The isothermal section of the Ni-Sn-Zn phase diagram at 873 K

The phase equilibria of the Ni-Sn-Zn ternary system were experimentally investigated at 873 K in the framework of the COST Action MP0602. Six ternary phases have been observed and their composition ranges have been determined by EPMA analysis on the annealed alloys. All the binary compounds, excluding Ni3Sn4, show a large solubility of the third element. The isothermal section at 873 K, including 17 three phase fields, has been determined
