Phase Diagrams and Diffusion in Materials Science, Lecture notes of Engineering

A comprehensive overview of phase diagrams and diffusion in materials science. It explores the concepts of hypoeutectic and hypereutectic systems, intermediate phases, and the role of thermodynamics and kinetics in phase transformations. The document also delves into the mechanisms of diffusion, including vacancy diffusion and interstitial diffusion, and discusses the importance of diffusion in various materials processes.

6 Sneek Peek: Nonequilibrium Cooling Phase Transformations are governed by Thermodynamics Equilibrium is lowest energy state Kinetics time-dependence of the reaction Readjustment of the composition in the phases through atomic movement Is the reaction possible? (Necessary condition) Often cooling rates too rapid to reach equilibrium state

How do atoms move in solids? 8 What are the “holes” in materials? Vacancies Interstitials Substitutional solid solution Interstitial solid solution Vacancy diffusion Interstitial diffusion

9 Notes on Vacancy Diffusion Where do vacancies come from? How does diffusion work over time? vacancies originate at internal and external boundaries (grain boundaries, surface)
