Iron Binary Eutectic Alloys - Melting Points
Fe - Iron - binary eutectic alloys and melting points.
The melting point of an alloy of two (binary) or more metals depends on the relative proportions of the ingredients.
- an eutectic mixture is the mixture where the melting point is as low as possible
Binary eutectic Iron - Fe - alloys, with composition and melting points are indicated below:
| Alloy Component | Weight of Alloy Component (%) | Melting Point | |
|---|---|---|---|
| K | oF | ||
| Gd - Gadolinium | 86 | 1123 | 1562 |
| Mo - Molybdenum | 31 | 1725 | 2646 |
| Nb - Niobium (Columbium) | 18.5 | 1643 | 2498 |
| Sb - Antimony (Stibium) | 94.1 | 1021 | 1378 |
| Si - Silicon | 21 | 1475 | 2196 |
| Sn - Tin (Stannum) | 49 | 1400 | 2061 |
| Y - Yttrium | 75 | 1173 | 1652 |
| Zr - Zirconium | 17 | 1600 | 2421 |
- T (oC) = 5/9 (T (oF) - 32)
