Abstract

In the beginning there were ideal solutions (Geneva 1966) [1] and lattice stability values were deduced for the transition elements. Next regular solution interaction parameters for second and third row transition elements were predicted from simple models (Cambridge 1970)[2] combined with the lattice stability values via computer methods to calculate binary and ternary phase diagrams. Line compounds were introduced for comparison with experimental phase diagram data. At Brunel (1971)[3] and Munster (1972)[4] the regular solution models were expanded to include subregular and higher order terms and since the origin of CALPHAD (1973)[5]many coupled sets of thermochemical and phase diagram descriptions have been derived and published. Examples of multicomponent phase diagram calculations applied to solution of industrial problems have been illustrated in the subject areas of transformations and stability in steels and superalloys, uranium alloys, SIALON materials, metallic and fluoride glasses, electronic materials, and novel materials refining and processing methods.
