The approximate temperature versus composition behavior for

The approximate temperature versus composition behavior for two liquidus lines for the alloy A-B are provided. Based on that, answer the questions below.

TL1(oC) = 4.256CB(wt%) + 1085

TL2(oC) = 6.512CB(wt%) + 310.8

a.) What is the melting temperature of metal A and metal B

Solution

a) Melting temperature of metal A is TL1 (C)   at 100 wt %   of metal A

     Melting temperature of metal B is TL2 (C)   at 100 wt % of metal B

      Melting temperature of metal A   = -4.256 * 100 + 1085    = 659.4 C

     Melting temperature of metal B = 6.512 * 100 + 310.8 = 962 C
