A study of the peritectoid transformation Zr + Zr/sub 2/Al ..-->.. Zr/sub 3/Al was made. Zr/sub 2/Al particles act as iron sinks similar to hydrogen sinks. The system is a three component alloy, and is thermodynamically stable over a range of temperatures accounting for Zr/sub 2/Al even in the hypostoichiometric alloy. The smaller the amount of iron in the starting material, the samller the amount of residual Zr/sub 2/Al. (FS)
