Comments on “Practicing pseudo-binary diffusion couple method in ternary and multicomponent systems” published in Acta Materialia 294 (2025) 121127
Iso-concentration (IC) couples characterized by similar terminal concentrations of one or more components have been employed for many decades for assessment of diffusional and thermodynamic interactions. Pseudo-binary (PB) couple is an extreme case of IC couples. Sadhu et al [1] recently presented an equation scheme for the interdiffusion analysis of a PB diffusion couple, which is shown in the present work to be mathematically and physically flawed. The present work examines the PB concept in a broader framework of multicomponent diffusion to highlight the technical fallacies in the analysis presented by and the invalid claims made in [1].
期刊介绍:
Scripta Materialia is a LETTERS journal of Acta Materialia, providing a forum for the rapid publication of short communications on the relationship between the structure and the properties of inorganic materials. The emphasis is on originality rather than incremental research. Short reports on the development of materials with novel or substantially improved properties are also welcomed. Emphasis is on either the functional or mechanical behavior of metals, ceramics and semiconductors at all length scales.
