The phase relations of the Fe-Zr-Y system at 973 K and 1073 K were experimentally investigated by using the equilibrated alloys. New ternary compounds τ3-Fe3ZrY and τ4-Fe10Zr5Y2 were found in this ternary system. The solubility of Y in Fe2Zr was measured to be 3.5 at.% and the third component can hardly dissolve in the other binary intermetallic phases. Experiments have verified that Fe2.9Zr0.5Y0.5 has a solid solubility ranging from Fe73Zr12Y14 to Fe77Zr9Y13.
Herein, a series of microwave dielectric materials in the Na2O-Bi2O3-MoO3 ternary system were studied via phase identification, microstructure characterization, spectral analysis and microwave dielectric properties test, such as Na2MoO4, Na6Mo10O33,...
Abstract
Au-Pt-Sn alloys are a novel class of materials with promising catalytic properties. This study provides updated information on phase equilibrium structures and thermodynamics of the Au-Pt-Sn ternary system. The formation enthalpies of Au-Sn and Pt-Sn binary subsystems were predicted by first principles calculations and these values were further refined by CALPHAD method. The results obtained accurately reproduced the experimental data. The reassessed phase diagram of the Au-Pt-Sn ternary system accurately described the phase composition of several Au-Pt-Sn alloys, which is essential for further modifications of these materials.
The densities and pH values in the system NaBO2–Na2SO4–H2O at 298.15 K and 323.15 K were investigated. Combining the equilibrium constants for different boron species, the distributions of six boron species in the mixed solution were calculated with total boron concentration and pH values. The molar fractions of the six boron species are mainly affected by the total boron concentration and temperature, but rarely affected by the concentration of SO42–. The dominant boron species in the mixed solution at the two temperatures is B(OH)4‒. The mole fraction of B(OH)3, B5O6(OH)4‒, and B3O3(OH)4‒ can be neglected. The polyborate ions are easier to form as the temperature increases. The results of distribution for boron species in this study and those with the Pitzer model can both be used to describe the distribution of boron species in the mixed solution.
