The properties of intermetallic compounds

 

Intermetallic compounds are metal alloys with a well-defined stoichiometry and long-range ordered crystal structures, unlike conventional alloys. This unique organization gives them valuable properties such as high thermal stability, excellent mechanical strength, resistance to oxidation and corrosion, low density, and hydrogen storage capability. As a result, they are widely used in aerospace, automotive, electronics, and hydrogen storage applications.

Phase diagrams

 

To fully understand and control the structure, properties, and reactivity of intermetallic materials, analyzing their thermal behavior is essential. In particular, constructing accurate phase diagrams plays a key role in predicting their physical state and microstructure as a function of composition and temperature.
