B-Mg (Boron-Magnesium)
A.A. Nayeb-Hashemi and J.B. Clark
The equilibrium phase diagram of the Mg-B system has not been reliably
determined. The melting points of pure Mg and pure B are 650 C and 2092 C,
respectively. The solid solubility of B in Mg and vice versa appears to be
negligible.
[77Spe] proposed the schematic for the Mg-B phase diagram and noted that
representation of "the general type of diagram shown is the type that the Mg-B
system will exhibit, but the given temperatures may be grossly in error."
However, this diagram does not include some of the phases that were reported
by [Elliott] and [Shunk].
[53Rus] showed that the compound in equilibrium with Mg had MgB2 stoichiometry.
[53Rus] found the existence of a MgB4 compound and two others of unspecified
composition. [54Jon] and [55Mar] confirmed that the compound in equilibrium
with Mg is MgB2.
[55Mar] also reported three more phases in this system and designated them as
MgB6, MgB12, and the g phase. The designated g phase was noted to be a
homogeneous phase between the MgB6 and MgB12 compounds with a B/Mg ratio of
about 9 to 1. [55Mar] approximated the invariant reaction temperatures for the
formation MgB2, MgB6, g, and MgB12 as њ 1050 C, 1150 C, 1200 C, and <301>
1700 C, respectively. [59Mar] showed that the reported Mg3B2 compound was
nonexistent and noted that there was not any boride richer in Mg than MgB2.
[62Duh] showed six intermediate phases in the system, which were designated as
MgB2, MgB4, MgB6 (in agreement with those of [53Rus] and [55Mar]), d phase (a
homogeneous phase between the MgB6 and MgB17 composition), and two more phases,
X and X›, with undefined compositions. According to [62Duh], the d phase
decomposed to X and X› above 1300 C, the latter phase existing primarily
above 1300 C.
[Shunk] noted that the g phase reported by [55Mar] appears to be the same
phase that [62Duh] identified as d. [Shunk] also speculated that the MgB12
compound reported by [55Mar] was possibly a mixture of the two undefined
phases (X and X›) reported by [62Duh]. However, because of low-purity
materials used by [62Duh], further investigation is needed to establish the
composition and stability range of the intermediate phases beyond the MgB6
composition.
The existence of phases very rich in B in the Mg-B phase diagram was
recognized by several investigators [55Mar, 62Duh]. However, the B-rich phases
MgB6 and MgB9, reported by [62Duh] and [55Mar], respectively, were never
confirmed. The structural formula of MgB7 is Mg2B14. To date, no compounds
richer in B than MgB7 have been reported.
