The Pt₈V ordering transformation in Pt 11 at. % V

Includes bibliographical references (leaves 121-125). === The Pt₈V ordering transformation in Pt 11 qt.% V alloys has been studied. The study included determining the thermodynamic stability of Pt₈V, the kinetics of Pt₈V ordering transformation and the strengthening due to the presence of the ordere...
