Experimental study and thermodynamic calculation of Au-Bi-Sb system phase equilibria

Phase equilibria in the Au-Bi-Sb ternary system have been studied experimentally and calculated by the CALPHAD method. Three calculated isopleths with molar ratios Au:Bi=1, Bi:Sb=1 and Au:Sb=1 were compared with the DTA results from this work. The liquidus projection has been calculated. Two ternary invariant reactions were noted. Calculated phase diagram of isothermal section at 573 K was compared with the results of SEM/EDX analysis.
