Eutectic Binary Phase Diagram


Eutectic Binary Phase Diagram Example
α and β are solid phases
L is the liquid phase
α + L and β + L are phase regions which are mixtures of solid and liquid
A and B are separate components of the system, for example, lead and tin

Eutectic binary phase diagrams are found in a number of metallic and ceramic systems. In the eutectic systems, two solid phases form.
