The constitution of the Ni–Zr phase diagram in the range 25–60 at.% Ni was refined using physicochemical analysis methods (metallography, X-ray diffraction, and differential thermal and electron microprobe analyses). The Zr2Ni and ZrNi phases were shown to melt at temperatures about 100 and 30°C lower than accepted previously. Upon analysis of the published data and our own experimental results, we concluded that the eutectic interaction between the Zr2Ni and ZrNi phases was not adequately confirmed. A modification of the equiatomic cubic phase was found for the first time.
