Cr-P (Chromium-Phosphorus)
M. Venkatraman and J.P. Neumann
The complete Cr-P phase diagram has not been established. The solid-liquid
equilibria have been determined only in the region from 0 to ~25 at.% P [39Vog]
. Investigations at larger P concentrations are difficult because of the high
vapor pressure of P. The following intermediate phases have been reported:
Cr3P, Cr2P, Cr12P7, CrP, Cr2P3, CrP2, and CrP4. The phases generally are
synthesized by direct reaction of Cr powder with red P in sealed silica tubes
at elevated temperatures.
The assessed phase diagram is similar to that of [Hansen]. According to [39Vog]
, the diagram is similar to the Fe-P phase diagram, as indicated by the
continuous solid solutions between Cr3P-Fe3P and Cr2P-Fe2P, respectively. The
mutual solubilities of Cr and P, as well as the homogeneity ranges of the
intermediate phases, are probably very small. The sublimation point of red P (
P = 1 bar), given as ~431 C in the assessed diagram, is taken from [Hultgren,
E].
The existence of Cr3P, which has a tetragonal crystal structure, is firmly
established. According to [39Vog], Cr3P melts peritectically at ~1510 C. Cr2P
occurs in two crystallographic modifications, a high-temperature hexagonal
form [39Vog] and a low-temperature orthorhombic form [72Roy]. The
transformation temperature between these two modifications is not known. [
39Vog] deduced the existence of Cr2P, based on investigation of the ternary
system Cr-Fe-P. Although [39Vog] could not obtain the pure binary phase Cr2P,
their studies indicated that it is isomorphous with Fe2P and that it melts
congruently at ~1640 C.
According to a crude estimate by [62Rip], CrP decomposes at ~1360 C. The
higher thermal stability of CrP compared to CrN is probably due to the
partially ionic bond character of CrP [54Sch].
The existence of Cr2P3, which was reported in only one investigation [14Die],
is questionable. The alloy was thermally stable in a stream of hydrogen at 280
C, but transformed to CrP on heating to 440 C. In contrast to these studies,
the vapor pressure measurements by [41Fal] in the region between CrP and CrP2
show no evidence for the presence of this phase.
CrP2 melts between 850 and 1000 C [41Fal], its color is black [41Fal, 73Jei],
it exhibits metallic conductivity [73Jei], and it has a monoclinic crystal
structure [73Jei]. [41Fal] and [54Sch] prepared the CrP2 phase by reacting Cr
powder and red P in sealed silica tubes at 600 to 700 C at ambient pressure; [
73Jei] prepared the phase in boron nitride crucibles between 1000 to 1200 C
at a pressure of 65 kbar. Attempts by [73Jei] to obtain CrP2 at lower
pressures (45 kbar and ambient) did not succeed. Further studies are needed to
clearly establish the stability of CrP2 as a function of pressure and
temperature.
CrP4 was prepared by reacting Cr powder and red P in boron nitride crucibles
between 900 and 1200 C at pressures of 15 to 65 kbar [72Jei]. However, CrP4
is also stable at lower pressures (3 kbar) at 1000 C [72Jei]. Similar to CrP2,
it is of black color and exhibits metallic conductivity [72Jei].
