Abstract:Based on the available experimental data, the Bi-Ni binary system was optimized thermodynamically by the CALPHAD method. The solution phases, including liquid, fcc_A1(Ni) and rhombohedral_A7(Bi), were described as substitutional solution phases, of which the excess Gibbs energies were expressed with the Redlich-Kister polynomial. The intermetallic compound, BiNi, was modeled using three sublattices (Bi)(Ni,Va)(Ni,Va) considering its crystal structure (NiAs-type) and the compatibility of thermodynamic database in the multi-component systems, while Bi3Ni was treated as a stoichiometric compound. Finally, a set of self-consistent thermodynamic parameters formulating the Gibbs energies of various phases in this binary system were obtained. The calculated results are in reasonable agreement with the reported experimental data.
