26 Phase Diagrams Metal Conversations

Phase diagrams are graphical representations of the phases present in a
particular alloy being held at a particular temperature. Phase diagrams
are used to predict the phase changes that occur in alloys during
heating and cooling. This can be during heat treating, casting
solidification, joining processes that involve molten metal, and
elevated temperature use conditions. This is important because the
properties of a metal component depend on the phases present in the
metal.
In this episode Michael discusses phase diagrams and their use.
