Abstract
Based on the same method by us which describes the solid solubilities of the binary nontransition metal based alloys, the solid solubilities at room temperature in 1380 binary alloys which are based on the 23 transition metals (Sc, Ti, V, Cr, Mn, Fe, Co, Ni, Y, Zr, Nb, Mo, Ru, Rh, Pd, La, Hf, Ta, W, Re, Os, Ir and Pt) of the fourth, fifth and sixth long periods have been studied in this paper. It has been found that the soluble elements can be separated from the insoluble elements by an ellipse equation (x−m) 2/c 2+(y−n) 2/d 2 = 1, by using a criterion of 0.5at% solubility at room temperature for every host element. The results show that the overall reliability for the ellipse equation is up to 90% for the 1380 alloys, which indicates the theoretical results are very good in agreement with the experimental data. The parameters m, n, c and d in the ellipse equation can be explained by the appropriate parameters for every host metal.
