    This document discusses phase diagrams, which are used to represent the equilibrium conditions and phases present in a material system. It defines key terms used in phase diagrams like components, solvents, solubility limits, and phases. It also describes different types of phase diagrams including unary, binary, eutectic, and those with intermediate phases/compounds. Specific phase transformations are also outlined such as eutectic, peritectic, congruent, and incongruent reactions. Interpreting phase diagrams allows determination of phases present and their compositions at different temperatures and alloy compositions.

    Phase Diagram
    • Component
    ▫ Pure metal/compound of which alloys are made of

    • Solute

    • Solvent

    • System

    • Solubility Limit

    • Phase
    ▫ Homogenous portion of a system that has uniform physical and
    chemical characteristics
    • Equilibrium
    ▫ Free energy is minimum under specified
    temperature, pressure and composition

    • Unary Phase Diagram

    • Binary Phase Diagram

    • Isomorphous
    • Interpretation of Phase Diagram
    ▫ Phases present
     Single phase → composition of alloy is composition of
    phase

    ▫ Determination of phase composition

    ▫ Determination of phase amount


    • Binary Eutectic System
    ▫ Eutectic reaction
    ▫ Eutectic reaction at single point
    ▫ Invariant reaction (single point reaction)
    ▫ Zero degree freedom
    ▫ Eutectic isotherm
    ▫ Lamellar structure
    • Primary α

    • Eutectic α

    • Microconstituent
    ▫ Identifiable and characteristic structure
    • Equilibrium Diagrams with Intermediate Phases and
    Compounds
    ▫ Terminal Solid Solution
    ▫ Intermediate Solid Solution
    ▫ Intermetallic Compound

    • Eutectoid Reaction

    • Peritectic Reaction

    •
    • Congruent Transformation
    ▫ No compositional alteration
    ▫ Allotropic change

    • Incongruent Transformation
    ▫ At least 1 phase experience change in composition
    ▫ Eutectic point
