Аннотация:Mechanochemical synthesis (MS) of Ni70Al25Mo5 (composition 1) and Ni75Al20Mo5 (composi
tion 2) mixtures, in which 5 at % Mo substitutes for the equal amount of Ni or Al, leads to the formation of
Nibased nanocrystalline (coherent domains are ~7–12 nm in size) solid solutions; in this case, some amount
of molybdenum remains free. A comparison of the lattice parameters of solid solutions, which were deter
mined experimentally, with the magnitudes determined theoretically using Vegard law and Bozollo–Ferrante
simulation, which takes into account volume modules of elasticity of elements, showed an increase in inter
actions between atoms composed the solid solution and the formation of regions characterized by shortrange
order. The heating of mechanically synthesized threecomponent Ni(Al, Mo) solid solutions to 720°C in a
calorimeter chamber forms the ordered γ' phase (L12) at T ~ 450°C. An analysis of the ratio of relative inten
sities of superlattice and fundamental reflections showed that, whatever the composition of initial mixture,
Mo atoms always occupy positions in the Al sublattice. This arrangement of Mo atoms was confirmed by cal
culations of coefficients of concentrational variations of the lattice parameters. When molybdenum is added
to Ni3Al, Mo atoms, rather than Ni atoms, complete the Al sublattice. In this case, vacancies compensate for
the lack of atoms in the Ni sublattice.
