Abstract
An optimized set of thermodynamic functions for the Cu-Zr system was obtained by the least squares method from phase diagram and thermodynamic data available in the literature. The excess Gibbs energies of the solution phases, liquid, and three terminal solid solutions, were described by the Redlich-Kister formula. All the intermediate compounds were treated as stoichiometric phases. The calculated phase diagram, as well as the thermodynamic properties vs compositions, agree well with the experimental values. The reliability of the optimized parameters was examined using μ-T plots.
