Phase Equilibrium
Equilibrium: minimum energy state for a given T, P,
and composition (i (i.e.
e equilibrium state will persist
indefinitely for a fixed T, P and composition).
An equilibrium phase will stay constant over time.
Phase diagrams tell us about equilibrium phases as a

function of T, P and composition (here, well always

Determining phase composition

in 2-phase region:
1. Draw the tie line.
2. Note where the tie line
intersects the liquidus and
solidus lines (i.e. where the tie
line crosses the phase
boundaries).
3. Read off the composition at the
boundaries:

Liquid: WL = = = = 0.68
R + S C C L 42.5 31.5
R C CL 35 31.5
Solid: W = = o = = 0.32
R + S C C L 42.5 31.5
i.e. 68% of the mass is liquid and 32% of the mass is solid. 11
Lever Rule: Derivation

Since we have only 2 phases:
WL + W = 1 (1)
Conservation of mass requires that:

Amount of Ni in -phase + amount of Ni in liquid phase = total amount of Ni
or
W C + WL C L = Co (2)
From 1st condition, we have: W = 1 WL

Sub-in to (2): (1 WL )C + WL C L = Co
Solving for WL and W gives :
C Co Co C L
WL = W =
C C L C C L 12

Microstructures in Isomorphous Alloys

Microstructures will vary on the cooling rate (i.e. processing conditions)
1. Equilibrium Cooling: Very slow cooling to allow phase equilibrium to

be maintained during the cooling process.
a (T>1260oC): start as
homogeneous liquid solution.
b (T ~ 1260oC): liquidus line
reached. phase begins to
nucleate. C = 46 wt% Ni; CL = 35 wt% Ni
c (T= 1250oC): calculate composition
and mass fraction of each phase.
d (T~ 1220oC): solidus line reached.
Nearly complete solidification.
C = 35 wt% Ni; CL = 24 wt% Ni
e (T<1220oC): homogeneous solid

solution with 35 wt% Ni.

C = 46 wt% Ni; CL = 35 wt% Ni

the existing solids (Why around them?).
d (T~ 1220oC): solidus line reached.
Nearly complete solidification.
Previously solidified regions maintain original
composition and further solidification occurs at
35 wt% Ni.

segregation).

Gibbs Phase Rule

In the previous example of Cu-Ag phase diagram, when F = 1, only one
parameter (T or C) needs to be specified to completely define the system.

If T is specified to be 1000oC,
compositions are already
determined (C and CL).

specified to be C then both T and
