Abstract
The PbS activities in FeS-PbS liquid mattes were obtained at 1100 °C and 1200 °C by the dew-point method. Negative deviations were observed, and the liquid-matte solutions were modeled by the Krupkowski formalism. The liquid boundaries of the FeS-PbS phase diagram were derived from the model equations yielding a eutectic temperature of 842 °C atX Pbs = 0.46. A phase diagram of the pseudobinary FeS-PbS was also verified experimentally by quenching samples equilibrated in evacuated and sealed silica capsules. No terminal solid solution ranges could be found. Within the Fe-Pb-S ternary system, the boundaries of the immiscibility region together with the tie-line distributions were established at 1200 °C. Activities of Pb were measured by the dew-point technique along the metal-rich boundary of the miscibility gap. Activities of Fe, Pb, and S, along the miscibility gap were also calculated by utilizing the bounding binary thermodynamics, phase equilibria, and tie-lines.
