title = "Phase equilibria of the LA-NI-CU ternary system at 673 K: Thermodynamic modeling and experimental validation",
abstract = "Phase equilibria and thermodynamic properties in the La-Ni-Cu ternary system were studied by coupling thermodynamic modeling and experimental validation. A set of self-consistent thermodynamic descriptions for phases in the La-Ni-Cu system were obtained on the basis of those of three constituent binaries and ternary experimental data in literature. The isothermal section at 673 K and the enthalpy of mixing of liquid calculated from the currently established ternary thermodynamic description were compared favorably with available experimental data. Three alloy samples in the La-Ni-Cu system were then selected, synthesized and annealed at 673 K in order to further validate the calculated phase equilibria. These alloys were analyzed with ICP, XRD, OM, SEM/BSE and EDS, and the experimental results agreed well with the calculated phase equilibrium relationships.",
