Abstract After melting and quenching, the ternary silicides U 2 Fe 17- y Si y exist far 3.3 ≤ y ≤ 4.5 but they partially decompose after annealing at 850-900°C. Their crystal structure, determined by X-ray diffractometry on both single crystals and powder, derives from the hexagonal Th 2 Ni 17 -type but depends strongly on the silicon content. For y = 3.7 some uranium sites are partially replaced by pairs of iron atoms and conversely. This structure shows some similarities to that observed for the binary compound Ho 2 Fe 17 . On the other hand, for y = 4.2, all the uranium atoms and pairs of iron atoms are statistically distributed. In contrast, the ternary silicide U 2 Co 15 Si 2 , which is obtained as single phase after annealing at 850°C, adopts the Th 2 Ni 17 -type structure. In all compounds, iron or cobalt atoms of the pair are never substituted by silicon atoms.
