The Phase Stability in the Fe-B Binary System: Comparison between the Interstitial and Substitutional Models

Article Preview

Abstract:

In the present work, a thermodynamic study was carried out in order to analyze the thermodynamic stability of the and phases in equilibrium with the phase using the calculation of phase diagrams (Calphad) formalism. The two phases and are modelled as substitutional and interstitial solid solutions of boron. The expressions of the chemical potentials of B and Fe are derived in both phases to perform the thermodynamic calculations. A comparison is made between the results provided by the substitutional and interstitial models and good agreement is observed between these two models.
