Most engineering materials are made of at least three different components. Their stability and response to changes in temperature can be mapped and understood using a Ternary Phase Diagram. These tutorials explain how to read and interpret ternary phase diagrams of interest to a Materials Scientist.
The tutorials assume some prior undergraduate-level exposure to binary phase diagrams. They explain the different methods for representing solid-state equilibria, the changes occurring upon melting and how to quantify crystallization/solidification paths for a ternary liquid.
This first video provides a general introduction and describes how to read isothermal sections involving all-solid 3-phase equilibria.
