• For molten oxides a more sophisticated model is required.
• We use the Modified Quasichemical Model (MQM).
SiO2 – CaO – MgO – AlO1.5 – FeO – FeO1.5 – …
• Consider a random distribution of second-nearest-neighbor cation pairs.
• Model parameters are the Gibbs energies of the pair-exchange reactions such as:

Modeling and Phase Diagram Calculation in Oxide Systems
CRCT
Several thermodynamic software/database packages
with applications in materials science have been developedover the last 30 years.
• These packages all contain large critically evaluateddatabases for thousands of compounds and hundreds ofsolution phases, as well as user interfaces of varying degrees

solution phases, as well as user interfaces of varying degreesof user-friendliness.
▫ HSC Chemistry
▫ MTS-NPL

▫ Thermodata
▫ FactSage
CRCT
• Thermochemical databases contain parameters giving the
Gibbs energy, G, of all compounds as functions of T (and P)
and of all solutions as functions of T, (P) and composition. This
is a complete description because all the other thermodynamic
properties (H, Cp, µ, etc.) can be calculated by taking the
appropriate derivatives of the G functions.
43
• For a given set of constraints (such as temperature, total
pressure, total mass of each element) the software calculates
the equilibrium conditions by minimizing the total Gibbs
energy of the system. This is mathematically equivalent to
solving all the equilibrium constant equations simultaneously.
• Data are automatically extracted as required from the
databases.

There are many kinds of chemical thermodynamic data for compounds and solutions:
▫ Calorimetric data:
� Heat capacity
� Solution calorimetry
� Enthalpy of mixing
� …

▫ Vapour pressures
▫ Phase equilibria:
� Solid/liquid/gas
� Phase diagrams (T-P-Composition)
▫ Chemical potentials or activities
� From electrochemical cells
� From phase equilibria (vapour pressures, isopiestic, …)
� …
▫ …(and so on)

These diverse kinds of data are not independent of each
other, but are related through the GIBBS FUNCTIONS of

• Therefore, in developing a database for a multicomponent chemical system, one assessesand evaluates ALL the data SIMULTANEOUSLY in order to obtain an optimal Gibbs function, G(T, P, Composition), for each phase.
• The resultant database is then thermodynamically self-

• The resultant database is then thermodynamically self-consistent.
• The optimized Gibbs functions are stored in the database(as sets of parameters). All thermodynamic properties and phase equilibria canthen be calculated from these functions.

• Step 1): Develop a mathematical model for each solution phase based upon the structureof the solution.The simplest example:a “regular” solution in which the atoms or molecules of each component are randomly distributed.

Conclusions
• Thermodynamic databases have been developed which contain
critically evaluated and modeled data for thousands of compounds and
hundreds of multicomponent solutions.
• The evaluated data are generally reproduced by the models within the
experimental error limits.
81
• The models permit extrapolation into regions of temperature and
composition where data are unavailable.
• The databases are automatically accessed by user-friendly software that
calculates complex multiphase equilibria in large multicomponent
systems for a wide variety of input/output constraints.
• The databases contain parameters of models specifically developed for
different types of solutions involving sublattices, ordering, etc.
