Abstract
The mutual solubilities of titanium and boron in Al-Ti-B ternary melts were determined over the temperature range 700° to 1300°C and the results interpreted in terms of the assumption (for which there is considerable evidence1) that the solubilities of these elements are limited by their reaction together to form titanium diboride (TiB2) probably containing aluminium diboride. In the method used, ternary melts were sampled at progressively lowered temperature levels after allowing time for titanium diboride precipitated to settle out.
