The ternary Cu-Al-Sn phase diagram is the base for several important types of alloys, with relevant industrial interest and applications. The knowledge of the melting/solidification alloys characteristics are determinant for their preparation and properties control. However, there is a lack of experimental information on the ternary phase diagram, at high temperature. In this work, several alloys, with high copper content and additions of Al, up to 10%, and Sn, up to 14% (in wt%), were studied by thermal analysis and by isothermal phase equilibria determination. The alloys liquidus and solidus lines and the binary ? + ? phase field, at 800?C, are presented for the studied range of compositions.

ABSTRACTPhase equilibria in ternary Hf-Ti-Si alloys were studied in the as-solidified and heat treated conditions using scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction, and electron beam microprobe analysis. Selected solid-solid phase equilibria at 1350°C and a partial liquidus projection of the Hf-Ti-Si system at the metal rich end of the phase diagram were established. These data were then used to develop a thermodynamic description of the Hf-Ti-Si system using the CALPHAD (CALculation of PHAse Diagram) approach. The calculated isothermal section at 1350°C and the liquidus projection can satisfactorily account for the available experimental phase equilibria data and solidification paths. Both the calculations and the experimental data suggested that the metal-rich end of the ternary phase diagram possesses one transition reaction: L + (Hf, Ti)5Si3 → Hf(Ti)2Si + β(Hf, Ti, Si).

Phase diagrams and thermodynamic properties of five additive molten salt ternary systems and nine reciprocal molten salt ternary systems containing the ions Li+, Na+, [Formula: see text], OH− are calculated from the thermodynamic properties of their binary subsystems which were obtained previously by a critical assessment of the thermodynamic data and the phase diagrams in these binary systems. Thermodynamic properties of ternary liquid phases are estimated from the binary properties by means of the Conformal Ionic Solution Theory. The ternary phase diagrams are then calculated from these thermodynamic properties by means of computer programs designed for the purpose. It is found that a ternary phase diagram can generally be calculated in this way with a maximum error about twice that of the maximum error in the binary phase diagrams upon which the calculations are based. If, in addition, some reliable ternary phase diagram measurements are available, these can be used to obtain small ternary correction terms. In this way, ternary phase diagram measurements can be smoothed and the isotherms drawn in a thermodynamically correct way. The thermodynamic approach permits experimental data to be critically assessed in the light of thermodynamic principles and accepted solution models. A critical assessment of error limits on all the calculated ternary diagrams is made, and suggestions as to which composition regions merit further experimental study are given.
