Description
Summary:A thermodynamic description of the entire ternary Bi-In-Zn system was obtained by the CALPHAD modelling of the Gibbs energy of the liquid phase. The experimental data on the phase equilibria and the thermodynamic properties published and complemented by the authors’ own experiments were taken into account. In order to verify the phase equilibria in the Bi-In-Zn system, 15 different samples were studied in the temperature range of 300-900 K by the DTA technique during heating and cooling cycles. Coexisting phases and their composition were analyzed by the SEM and EDX techniques for 9 distinct samples after their thermal equilibration at 373 K and 473 K.
