Silver-Bismuth-Thallium (Hans Leo Lukas)



Binary Systems

The liquidus of the system Ag-Tl [76Zim2] (Fig. 1) and some phase boundaries of the system Tl-Bi [78Kri] (Fig. 2) are slightly different from those assumed by [H]. For Ag-Bi the diagram of [H] is accepted.

Solid Phases

Except for the (Ag) solid solution in equilibrium with liquid, the extension into the ternary system is very small (see Table 1).

Invariant Equilibria

Invariant equilibria are given in Table 2 and Fig. 3.

Liquidus Surface

The liquidus surface is given in Fig. 4.

Isothermal Sections

The isothermal section at 200C is given in Fig. 5.
