Abstract

A Knudsen-cell mass spectrometer was used to determine thermodynamic properties of the Fe-Cr-P alloys in the temperature range of 1403 to 1821 K. Concentration of the components varied within the mole-fraction ranges, as follows: Fe, 0.059 to 0.801; Cr, 0.054 to 0.789; and P, 0.048 to 0.318. The isoactivity lines of phosphorous are close to the secants connecting the Fe-P and Cr-P binary sides. Iron and chromium activities decrease regularly as the configuration point moves from the Fe-Cr liquid solution toward the Fe-P and Cr-P melts. The thermodynamic properties have been described, with the associated solution model assuming that binary and ternary complexes exist in the melt.
