Abstract:
Work is being done at Mintek, the University of Leeds and the University of Bayreuth to build up a platinum-aluminium-chromium-ruthenium (Pt-Al-Cr-Ru) database for the prediction of phase diagrams for further alloy development by obtaining good thermodynamic descriptions of all of the possible phases in the system. Binary descriptions were combined, allowing extrapolation into the ternary systems, and experimental phase equilibrium data were compared with calculated results. Very good agreement was obtained for the Pt-Al-Ru system, as described in Part I of this series of papers (1). This paper (Part II) addresses the Pt-Cr-Ru system, with equally encouraging results. The final paper in the series (Part III, to be published in a future issue of Platinum Metals Review) will deal with work on the platinum-aluminium-chromium-nickel (Pt-Al-Cr-Ni) database at the University of Bayreuth. The Pt-Al-Cr-Ru and Pt-Al-Cr-Ni databases will eventually be merged.Document Type: Research article
