The Gibbs's energy of the formation at 988 K of intermetallic compound
s in the Ni-Sc system from solid components was calculated using chron
opotentiometric data. The ScNi compound was shown to be the most stabl
e in the system under investigation. This conclusion is in accordance
with the published data. The ScNi, compound has the maximum microhardn
ess both in the series of the isostructural REMNi(2) compounds and in
the searched system.
