Isothermal holding tests were carried out in the Fe‐Ni‐Mo system in the two‐phase region between the liquidus (melt) and the solidus (crystal). The δ and γ liquidus surfaces in the iron‐rich corner of the Fe‐Ni‐Fe 3 Mo 2 ‐NiMo subsystem, as well as the position of the peritectic line situated between them, could be very accurately established by the experimentally determined isotherms. Based on these results and on the known liquidus lines in the three boundary binary systems, as well as on the known concentration fields of the Fe 3 Mo 2 ‐NiMo solid solutions, the melting equilibria could be developed with sufficient accuracy in the entire subsystem.
