Abstract: A Zr-rich phase,Ni_5Zr,with low melting point has been fouhd in an Ni_3Al alloy doped with Zr(1.2at.-%).It will cause the incipient melt of the alloy after being homogenized at 1300℃. This makes it difficult to homogenize the coarse casting structures completely and limits the further improvement of properties of the Ni_3Al alloy.

Key words: Ni_3Al monocrystalline alloy, Ni_5Zr phase, homogenization
