Abstract
Thermodynamic description of the Fe-Cu-P system is developed within the frame of a new Fe-X-P (X = Al, Cr, Cu, Mn, Mo, Nb, Ni, Si, Ti) database. The thermodynamic parameters of the binary sub-systems, Fe-Cu, Fe-P and Cu-P, are taken from earlier assessments. Those of the Fe-Cu-P system are optimized in this study using the experimental thermodynamic and phase equilibrium data from the literature. The solution phases of the system are described using the substitutional solution model and the phosphides are treated as stoichiometric or semi-stoichiometric phases of the type (A,B)pCq.
