a In situ powder X-ray diffraction investigation of 1.3MgH2 + Fe + 4B reaction in the 25–900 °C temperature range. Unindexed phases first appear at 560 °C for α-phase and 690 °C for β-phase. b Selected PXRD patterns from the in situ experiments for temperature range of 560–900 °C. The red triangles represent unindexed peaks for the unknown phase α and the yellow stars represent unindexed peaks for the unknown phase β. c PXRD pattern, collected with Cu-Kα radiation, of ternary MgNi3B2 produced due to the reaction of MgB2 and Ni in salt flux. Minor phase peaks of MgB2 are represented by (*).
