Diffusion in Ternary Silver-Zinc-Cadmium Solid Solutions

<p>Diffusion in the silver-zinc-cadmilth system was investigated at 6000C with semi-infinite vapor-solid couples in order to evaluate intrinsic<br>diffusion coefficients and interdiffusion coefficients in the alpha and beta phases. Intrinsic diffusion coefficients were determined at several composition<br>points.in the alpha phase region along concentration lines of 11 at. pct„ Zng 18 at. pet. Zns 5 at. pct. Cd and 9 at. pct. Cd. Interdiffusion coefficients in the a phase were determined at several points of intersection of various composition paths; these composition points of intersection were along lines of constant zinc-to-cadmium concentration ratios of 3.8 1.8 and<br>1.2. All two-phase diffusion couples developed planar B/a interfaces. Intrinsic coefficients were computed at three composition points in the beta<br>reg»a corresponding to a silver concentration of approximately 55 at. pct. Intrinsic coefficients for B alloys are two to three orders of magnitude larger than those for alpha alloys.</p><p>This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization as we know it.
