Lead Binary Eutectic Alloys - Melting Points
Pb - Lead (Plumbum) - binary eutectic alloys and melting points.
The melting point of an alloy of two (binary) or more metals depends on the relative proportions of the ingredients.
- an eutectic mixture is the mixture where the melting point is as low as possible
Binary eutectic Lead - Pb - alloys, with composition and melting points are indicated below:
| Alloy Component | Weight of Alloy Component (%) | Melting Point | |
|---|---|---|---|
| K | oF | ||
| Pr - Praseodymium | 31 | 1315 | 1908 |
| Pt - Platinum | 5 | 563 | 554 |
| Sb - Antimony (Stibium) | 11 | 520 | 477 |
| Sn - Tin (Stannum) | 61 | 460 | 369 |
| Te - Tellurium | 78 | 680 | 765 |
| Ti - Titanium | 74 | 998 | 1337 |
- T (oC) = 5/9 (T (oF) - 32)
