ZINC SOLUBILITY MEASUREMENTS AND THERMODYNAMIC EVALUATION OF Zn-Pb-Bi TERNARY SYSTEM
Abstract
Bismuth may be used in place of lead to confer spangle on hot dipped galvanized components and to decrease the melt viscosity to facilitate drainage of the liquid alloy. A thermodynamic model of the Zn-Pb-Bi ternary alloy system has therefore been developed based on the computed phase diagrams for Bi-Pb, Pb-Zn and Bi-Zn. The observed diagrams are well reproduced with self-consistent sets of compatible thermodynamic data. Experimental work in …
