Abstract

Thermodynamic analysis of oxygen solutions in the Fe – Ni – O, Fe – Co – O, Co – Ni – O melts was determined. Composition of the oxide phase and the value of the equilibrium oxygen concentration in the melt of those systems were fi rst time obtained in a whole range of alloy compositions. In Fe – Ni – O and Fe – Co – O systems with increasing content of nickel and cobalt in the melts the oxide phase contains mainly FeO in a suffi ciently wide range of content of nickel and cobalt. Only when the mole fraction of nickel is close to unity and the mole fraction of cobalt is more than 0.8, content of NiO and CoO increases sharply. Oxide phase of Co – Ni – O system contains CoO and NiO in
the entire range of alloy compositions. In the Fe – Ni and Fe – Co systems nickel and cobalt additives in the melt lead to decreased solubility of oxygen due to the attenuation, both nickel and cobalt, oxygen bonds in the melt and thus increases its activity. Further, by increasing the content of nickel and cobalt, the oxygen concentration in the melt increases slowly at fi rst and then quite rapidly. In Co – Ni system nickel additives to cobalt lead to increasing solubility of oxygen in the whole range of alloy compositions due to a substantially greater solubility of oxygen in nickel than in cobalt.
