Popis: The purpose of this work was to investigate the MgAl phase diagram in the composition range from 47 to 63 at.% Al which has not previously been consistently determined. The rhombohedral e phase n ear 56 at.% Al is found to form at 410°C following a peritectoid reaction (γ + β → e) and not a peritectic reaction as reported by Schumann and Voss (Giessereiforschung. 33 (1981) 43). The respective homogeneity ranges of the γ phase in the Al-rich part and of the β phase have been determined. Besides the γ, β and e phases, the existence of a high temperature phase (named λ) between 435 and 445°C is suggested. The existence of the ξ phase and of the relevant invariant reactions reported by Schumann and Voss are not confirmed by the present results.
