Abstract

The allotropic transition temperature associated with the metastable γ-Al4Sm (orthorhombic) and β-Al4Sm (tetragonal) phases was investigated experimentally. Low-energy X-ray diffraction and differential scanning calorimetry were found to be inconclusive due to the transient nature of the phases involved, which spontaneously decompose to the stable δ-Al3Sm and Al-fcc phases. High-energy X-ray diffraction, using synchrotron radiation, however, was able to resolve the transition during continuous heating, enabling detailed analysis of the temperature-dependent diffraction pattern. The γ-β transition temperature was determined to be 896 K, based on a well-resolved transition onset.

Synchrotron X-ray scattering was performed at the 11-ID-C beam line at the Advanced Photo Source, Argonne National Laboratory, USA.
 
4
2D diffraction patterns were collected with a Perkin-Elmer XXXX detector, with 0.2 × 0.2 mm pixel size.
 
5
Pattern integration was performed with Fit2D software.
