Phase Equilibria in the System Tl9SbSe6–TlSbSe2–Tl4SnSe4

Resumo

For the first time, by differential thermal, X-ray powder diffraction, and microstructural analyses, phase equilibria in the ternary system Tl₉SbSe₆–TlSbSe₂–Tl₄SnSe₄ were investigated and the state diagram of the polythermal section Tl₄SnSe₄–Tl₃SbSe₃, the projection of the liquidus surface on the concentration triangle, and the isothermal section at 423 K were constructed. The types and coordinates of invariant processes, the lines of monovariant equilibria, and their temperature ranges were found. The formation mechanism and nature of solid solutions based on ternary compounds Tl₉SbSe₆ and TlSbSe₂ were studied in terms of crystal chemistry.
