  11. 1 cm 20 µm COST 531 Final Meeting Vienna, Austria May 17 - May 18, 2007 Sample preparation in Ag-Ni-Sn • There are two main problems: • The miscibility gap which extends from the binary Ag-Ni far into the ternary • Evaporation during arc-melting and DTA in the Ni-rich part • Solution: Samples up to app. 35 at.% Sn have been prepared from Ni-, Ni3Sn and Ag3Sn powders. They were annealed at the respective temperatures, re-powdered and annealed again up to three times.

  18. COST 531 Final Meeting Vienna, Austria May 17 - May 18, 2007 Conclusions • The quality of experimental and calculated higher order phase diagrams is limited by the quality of the constituent binary’s. • Also well established and widely used binary phase diagram compilations and assessments can exhibit essential errors. A careful check of original literature data and a few experiments should be done. • CALPHAD method is powerful to check the consistency of different experimental data and to present phase diagrams and thermochemical data. The predicting power, however, is very low, specially for binary and ternary systems. • Based on all experimental data available now an optimized data set for Ni-Sn and Ag-Ni-Sn can be established.
