Phase Diagrams
· Copper and nickel are completely soluble in each other both in the liquid and the solid phase. The alloy composition is selected to give the desired properties.
· The binary phase diagram for the copper (Cu) nickel (Ni) system shows the temperature dependence of phase stability as a function of the alloy composition.
· Two zones exist in which the alloy is either solid or liquid, and there is also a two- phase zone in which the solid α and the liquid L are in mutual equilibrium.
