Abstract: The binary system Ni-In has been completely revised by XRD, DTA and EMPA on carefully annealed alloys (from 30 days at 1000 °C to 6 months at lower temperatures (∼400 °C)). The solubility of In in Ni varies from 3.3 at.% In at 420 °C, increasing to a maximum of 9.5 at.% In at 908 °C. No solubility of Ni in In has been measured. Only three observed intermetallic compounds are non stoichiometric: Ni2In (high temperature form, stable from 470 °C to 950 °C, with a maximum extent from 31.2 at.% In (908 °C) to 42 at.% In (908 °C)), Ni13In9 (peritectoïdic decomposition at 853 °C, with a maximum extent from 38.0 to 42.0 at.% at 200 °C) and NiIn (high temperature form, stable from 779 °C to 930 °C, with a maximum extent from 49.5 at.% In (908 °C) to 58.8 at.% In (865 °C)). All the other observed intermetallic compounds are stoichiometric: Ni3In, Ni2In (low temperature form), NiIn (low temperature form), Ni2In3 and Ni3In7.
