Phase diagrams provide scientists and engineers with basic information of fundamental importance both for scientific research and for the development and optimization of materials. Collections of such diagrams are accordingly extremely useful, especially when the data on which they are based have been subjected to critical evaluation.





The series 'Ternary Alloys' provides concise and - as far as published data allow - consistent phase diagram descriptions of complete categories of ternary systems e.g. Ag-X-Y or Al-X-Y. The representation of the equilibria of ternary systems in dependence of temperature results in spacial diagrams whose sections and projections are generally published in the literature.





In 'Ternary Alloys' phase equilibria are described in terms of liquidus projections, isothermal sections and, in cases where the tie lines lie in the sectional plane, in terms of vertical sections (pseudobinaries). Data on invariant equilibria are generally given in the form of tables.
