The quasicrystalline phase was prepared using two different methods. The first method （I） consisted of ball milling the mixture of powders of pure aluminum copper and iron in a planetary mill with subsequent compacting by hot pressing and annealing. The second method （Ⅱ） consisted of arc melting of the components in argon atmosphere followed by annealing. The latter method was used for preparing the compound FeAl and the solid solutions. The phases were identified using the XRD method. The enthalpy of the formation was determined for the quasicrystalline phase of the composition Al62Cu25.5Fe12.5 and the temary BCC solid solutions Al35Cu14Fe51, Al40Cu17Fe43, and Al50.4Cu19.6Fe30. The measured enthalpy of formation of the intermetallic compound FeAl is in good agreement with the earlier published data. The enthalpies of formation of the quasicrystalline phases prepared using two different methods are close to each other, namely, -22.7±3.4 （method I） and -21.3±2.1 （method Ⅱ） kJ/mol.展开更多
