System
|
Material under consideration.
|
|
Component
|
Species that make up the system.
Pure metal or compound. |
|
Phase
|
A portion of the system which has uniform properties.
Homogeneous portion. |
|
Equilibrium
|
Terminal (lowest energy) states that systems will evolve to over long time.
Stable states. |
|
Gibbs Phase Rule
|
P + F = C + N
P = number of phases F = number of degrees of freedom C = number of components N = number of noncompositional variables |
|
Comparing overall composition and liquid & solid composition.
|
Overall composition remains the same but liquid and solid composition may change.
|
|
Solidus and liquidus lines
|
Compositions of the liquid and solid phases that are in equilibrium with each other at T.
|
|
Reading Cu/Ni binary phase diagram
(EXAMPLE 1) |
Lecture 20
|
|
What are ceramics characterized by?
|
Inter metallic bonds that are ionic or predominantly ionic.
|
|
Structure of ceramics depends on...
|
Cation to anion radii
|
|
What makes a stable structure?
|
Ones where cations and anions are in contact.
If the cation is too small, the anions may slip and re-arrange. |
|

|
Density of ceramics
(Formula) |
Density = Number of formula units in unit cell * (Sum of all cation atomic masses + Sum of all anion atomic masses) / Vc * Na
|
|
APF
|
APF = total vol of cations + total vol of anions/ Vc
