Abstract
Four key samples of the Mg-Ca-Sn ternary system in the Mg-rich region at 415 and 350 °C have been determined using the Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) equipped with Energy Dispersive X-Ray Spectrometry (EDS). The existence of the CaMgSn ternary compound was confirmed in these two isothermal sections. Thermodynamic optimizations of the Ca-Sn binary system and Mg-Ca-Sn ternary system were carried out using the CALPHAD (Calculation of Phase Diagrams) technique. The Modified Quasichemical Model (MQM) was used for the liquid solution which exhibits a high degree of short-range ordering behavior in the liquid solution. The solid phases are modeled with the Compound Energy Formalism (CEF). Finally, a self-consistent thermodynamic database of Mg-Ca-Sn ternary system has been constructed in the present work, which would provide an efficient and convenient way to study and develop the new Mg-Sn based alloys.
