Abstract
Chemical and X-ray investigation of the reaction of carbon monoxide with iron nitrides and of the reaction of ammonia with iron carbides discloses the existence of iron carbonitrides— a series of new ternary interstitial alloys containing iron, carbon and nitrogen. ζ-phase carbonitrides, with structures similar to those of ζ-iron nitrides, have a range of homogeneity extending approximately from Fe

Prolonged reaction of carbon monoxide with iron nitrides results in complete elimination of nitrogen. Below 500° C the product is a carbide of iron, now called iron percarbide, the narrow composition range of which includes Fe
