Tetracomponent system state diagrams for analysis of material compositions

Abstract

Chemical compounds, composites and raw material mixture compositions expressed by system state diagrams were analysed in this work. The amounts of components % are given, also other parameters (such as temperature, pressure, etc.) can be included. Generally monocomponent (one material, temperature and pressure coordinates), bicomponent (two materials, temperature coordinates) and tetracomponent (three materials, also isotherms can be shown) are used. In this paper, we examined the tetracomponent system state diagram formation, compound or composite composition inclusion into diagrams and also composition identification possibilities. It is shown that the composition can be introduced into the diagram also by the method which could be of interest to patent authors, because some of the information in the diagrams can acquire a “know–how” function.
