The isothermal section of Pr-Fe-Sn system at 670 K has been investigated by
EDAX and X-ray phase analysis. Two ternary compounds, Pr6Fe13Sn and PrFe0.
4Sn2 have been found. Crystal structure of the PrFe0.4Sn2 compound was refi
ned to be isotypic with CeNiSi2 (a=4.545(1) Angstrom, b=16.833(3) Angstrom,
c=4.448(1) Angstrom). (C) 2000 Published by Elsevier Science S.A. All righ
