Abstract

The phase equilibrium and thermodynamic data on the Mn-B system are critically reviewed. Based on the experimental data, a thermodynamic modeling is performed on this system. A set of self-consistent thermodynamic parameters is obtained and the calculated results are in general agreement with the experimental data. A parameter ξ is introduced to compare the degree of flatness of the δMn/L liquidus with those in other metal-boron systems. It is found that the δMn/L liquidus is the flattest, which causes difficulties in its modeling. An effective approach to evaluate the thermodynamic parameters for o-Mn2B0.982 phase is developed. Such an approach is valid for evaluating thermodynamic parameters of the phases with limited phase diagram data.
