Great video! It helped me a lot in understanding the diagrams. I have a question about solid solubility. At 19:22 from the Si, Mo, Re diagram, can we say that the green point is a solid solution of MoSi2/Mo3Si2/ReSi?
The green point composition is a 3-phase mixture of MoSi2 + Mo3Si2 + ReSi. We would not say it is a "solid solution" of these three as that would imply they are soluble with each other when they are not. So a sample of this composition is inhomogeneous with regions of each of these 3 different phases; if they were soluble (a solid solution) it would be completely homogeneous in composition and structure. The relative amounts of the 3 phases that are present can be calculated from the tie-triangle.
Excellent. finally someone has taken a step and made these videos and made them really simple.
Thank you!
Excellent. I worried going in that I was too rusty on binary phase diagrams but your explanation is so clear that I didn't have any issues at all.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Really good videos for the ternary phase diagram understanding, thank you!
Happy to hear they were helpful

Hello Peter, Your videos are simply great.
Can you please arrange them in a sequence in a PlayList.
Thank you for the comment and the suggestion; I will work on creating the playlists you suggested
Thank you!!!!!!
You're welcome!
