Summary • Phase diagrams are useful tools to determine: --the number and types of phases, --the wt% of each phase, --and the composition of each phase for a given T and composition of the system. • Alloying to produce a solid solution usually --increases the tensile strength (TS) --decreases the ductility. • Binary eutectics and binary eutectoids allow for a range of microstructures.
