An expression for the solubility product of niobium carbonitride in the austenite is obtained that agrees reasonably well with published data. A generalisation of such an expression is also given which provides a simple thermodynamical estimate for the solubility product of the multicomponent fcc carbonitride of the form (Nb, Ta, V, Ti, Zr) (C, N).
