Chapter 9 Phase Diagram
• Basic Concepts• Isomorphous System • Detail in Isomorphous Phase Diagram• Microstructure Development in Isomorphous Phase
Diagram• Binary Eutectic System• More Complicated System• The Iron-Carbon System
Materials Science Chapter 9 2
Basic Concepts• Solubility limit
– Maximum concentration of solute atoms that may dissolve in the solvent to form a solution
– Dependence on temperature, pressure…
• Phase– A homogeneous portion of a system that has uniform physical
and chemical characteristics.
• Microstructure– Direct microscopic observation– Number of phases, proportions,
and distributions
• Phase equilibria– Free energy is at its minimum– Stable system with multiple phases– Metastable state
• Phase diagram (equilibrium)– The relationships between temperature,
compositions and quantities of phases at equilibrium.
Materials Science Chapter 9 3
Binary Isomorphous Systems (Cu-Ni System)• Phase diagram
– Liquid phase (homogeneous)
– α phase: substitutional solid solution
– Complete liquid and solid solubility (isomorphous)
– Liquidus line and solidus line
– Pure copper and pure nickel
– Cooling curve

Microstructure Development in Isomorphous
• Equilibrium cooling– Very slow cooling
– Maintain phase equilibrium
Materials Science Chapter 9 6
Microstructure Development in Isomorphous
• Nonequilibrium cooling– Diffusion process can not
be complete within limited time.

Binary Eutectic Phase Diagram• Three single-phase
regions– α, β, L
• Three two-phase regions
• Solubility limit• Solvus line, liquidus
line, and solidus line• Eutectic isotherm
(horizontal solidus line)
• Eutectic invariant point
• Eutectic reaction

Eutectic Reaction
• Proceeds to completion at a constant temperature
• Generates two solid phases
• Different from the phase transformation of a pure component
• Three phases are in equilibrium only at the points along the eutectic isotherm.

Congruent and Incongruent Phase Transformations
• Congruent– No change in
composition
• Incongruent– Involve changes in
composition (at least on one of the phases)
• Congruent melting point
Materials Science Chapter 9 20
The Gibbs Phase Rule
• The number of phases coexisting within a system follows
P + F = C + N– P: the number of phases present
– F: the number of degrees of freedom
– C: the number of components in the system
– N: the number of non-compositional variables
• One phase region
F = 3 – P = 3 – 1 = 2
• Two phase region F = 1
• Three phase region F = 0
