Abstract

A detailed analysis of the topology of two-dimensional isothermal potential phase diagrams for systems composed of three chemical elements is presented. Chemical potentials (or derived properties as activities or partial pressures) of two independent components or their combinations are used as coordinates of such diagrams. The chemical potentials of other species are constant at the given temperature (i.e., stoichiometric, single-species condensed phases, or components of a multicomponent phase of fixed composition). It was shown that only invariant point can change the topology of the diagram. A method for the determination of invariant points is proposed. The set of invariant points is divided into four classes, and each class is demonstrated by a practical example.
