Crystallization Relationships
Cool composition a from 2000oC At 2000oC: phi = ? (1 (liquid) F = ? F = C - f = = 3 = T, X(An)Liq, X(Di)Liq, and X(Fo)Liq only 2 of 3 X’s are independent Next cool to 1700oC Intersect liquidus surface What happens??
17
Pure Fo forms Just as in binary f = ? F = ? a Liquid An Fo + Liq
Di + Liq Di + Fo a An Pure Fo forms Just as in binary f = ? F = ?
19
Liq/total solids = a-m/Liq-a total Di/Fo = m-Fo/Di-m
Ternary lever w/ 3 phases Imagine triangular plane X - Di - Fo balanced on bulk a Liq x a Di m Fo Liq/total solids = a-m/Liq-a total Di/Fo = m-Fo/Di-m
