Experimental Determination of Phase Equilibria in the Silver-Copper Oxide System at High Temperature

Abstract

The phase diagram of silver-copper oxide was studied using thermal, microstructural and compositional analysis of quenched samples. The eutectic and monotectic temperature were found and compared to previous data. The miscibility gap was analyzed at higher temperatures than previous experimental work. The profile of the miscibility gap was found to extend from the monotectic composition and extend further into the copper rich portion than previously experimental work had show, which verifies a previous computational study.
