| Isomorphous Binary Phase Diagram Example |
|
| α is the solid phase, can also be represented by S |
| L is the liquid phase |
| α + L is a phase region which is a mixture of solid and liquid |
| A and B are separate components of the system |
Isomorphous binary phase diagrams are found in a number of metallic and ceramic systems. In the isomorphous systems, only one solid phase forms; the two components in the system display complete solid solubility.
Typically, the isomorphous system has a liquid area, a solid area, and an area that is a mixture of both liquid and solid. Typically, a binary isomorphous phase diagram consists of two phase boundaries: the liquidus and the solidus.
