An assessment of the Fe-O system

  • Published:
Journal of Phase Equilibria

Abstract

The Fe-O system is well known experimentally and has a number of characteristic features in the liquid and solid phases—for example, extended solubility of the solid oxides, magnetic transitions, and a liquid miscibility gap. In this paper, these properties are described using the compound energy model with ionic constituents for the solid phases and an ionic two-sublattice model for the liquid. Parameters in these models are assessed to describe the experimental data, and a consistent set is determined that gives an accurate description of the properties from 298.15 to 2000 K.
