Phase Diagrams and Phase Separation - University of Cincinnati
www.eng.uc.eduThe locus d2f/dc2 = 0 is called the spinodal curve. We need to distinguish how phase separation occurs inside this curve from between binodal and spinodal. Spinodal Curve and Spinodal Decomposition In the two phase region, two kinds of decomposition can occur. 1. Nucleation and Growth Πwhich we have already talked about, and is the most ...
Heat Treatment of 17-4 PH Stainless Steel
bircelik.comwithin the spinodal line, phase decomposition of the martensite into the Ferich α and the Cr-enriched α’ is expected on aging below 450°C. Much work has shown that stainless steels are embrittled when a’ phase precipitates by spinodal decomposition.

my.eng.utah.edu• Spinodal decomposition is a mec hanism by which a solution of two or more components can separate into distinct phases with distinctly different chemical compositions and physical properties. This mechanism differs from the classical nucleation (as we went through in previous Lectures #10-14 ):
Lecture 5: Diffusion Coefficient (Diffusivity)
my.eng.utah.eduinside spinodal is characterized by = < 0 since D A is always >0, then this means D A C <0 That is, if the original solution is cooled inside the spinodal, the chemical diffusion coefficient D A C is less than zero, i.e., a negative diffusion coefficient, as J A = - D A C · , it means the flux
