Abstract

It is known that the compatibility of construction materials with a metallic melt depends on the equilibrium solubility of the material in the liquid phase. In case of some binary melts such as Na-K and Pb-Bi of eutectic composition, there are experimental data which allows the estimation of their compatibility with constructional materials of different types. For other two-component metallic melts, however, only limited data on the solubility of metals are published [1]. Additional difficulties are encountered, if the melts contain impurities like oxygen, nitrogen, carbon and hydrogen, which have a significant influence on the compatibility of solid and liquid metals. A preliminary estimation of the compatibility of constructional materials with multi-component melts is proposed which is based on a procedure to calculate the solubility of solid metals in pure two-component melts and also in melts containing non-metallic impurities that would be possible.
