Binary Phase Diagrams in the Science of Metals

  • STRUCTURE AND PHASE TRANSFORMATIONS
  • Published:
Metal Science and Heat Treatment Aims and scope

Some debatable aspects of interpretation of binary phase diagrams playing a key role in the science of alloys are considered. It is shown that the ordering – separation phase transition in binary alloys changes the sign of the chemical interatomic interaction at some temperatures. The mismatch between the mechanism of this process and its representation in the phase diagram is discussed. It is suggested that some concepts on the ranges of the diagram, where the structural changes occur by diffusion, should be revised.
