Assessed Systems and Phases
A hybrid approach of experiments, first-principles calculations and CALPHAD modeling have been used to obtain thermodynamic descriptions of the constituent binary and ternary systems over the whole composition and temperature ranges.
All the stable solution phases and intermetallic compounds that exist in each assessed system are included. Note that in most cases phases having the same crystal structure had been merged as the same phase.
The most recent version of the database contains:
- 229 assessed binary systems
- 133 assessed ternary systems
- 5 assessed quaternary systems
- 575 phases
In Console Mode, you can list phases and constituents in the Database (TDB) module and the Gibbs (GES) module. For some phases, supplementary information is included in the definitions. To show the information, it is recommended in the Database (TDB) module to use the command List_System with the option Constituents.
