Abstract
The Cr-Nb-Sn system has been studied experimentally, by first principles calculation and finally modeled with the Calphad method. The experimental study has been carried out on the Cr-Sn binary system to determine the solubility of Sn in the A2 (Cr) solid solution, but also in the Cr-Nb-Sn ternary system in order to determine phase equilibria of the isothermal section at 800°C and 1100°C. Besides, the formation enthalpies of all the ordered configurations of the C15 and A15 phases and the stoichiometric Nb6Sn5 and NbSn2 phases have been calculated using the Density Functional Theory (DFT). The mixing enthalpies of the A2 binary solid solutions have been estimated using the Special Quasirandom Structures (SQS). All these new experimental and calculated data have been taken into account for a new thermodynamic assessment of the three binary and the ternary systems.
