The phase diagram of the ternary system L i I n S b is determined at 400 °C by electrochemical techniques. The lithium content of samples with different In : Sb ratios is varied by coulometric titration. The equilibrium lithium activities are obtained from emf measurements. Two new ternary compounds, Li3InSb2 and Li6InSb3 with a wide range of stoichiometry, exist along the quasibinary cut InSb-...

A simple method for maintaining balance in ternary search tries is presented. The new kind of self-balancing ternary search trie, called an r-trie, generalizes the balancing strategy of Aragon and Seidel’s randomized binary search trees (treaps). This means that an r-trie is shaped like a ternary search trie built by inserting the strings in random order. As a result, the time cost of searching...

Acquiring a comprehensive understanding of the phase behaviour of mixtures of crude-oil with carbon dioxide and water is a key input for reservoir engineering in processes of enhanced oil recovery and geological storage of carbon dioxide. To gain an insight, given the very complex nature of crude-oil mixtures, the study of simpler systems is of interest. In this work the system (propane + carbo...

The Bi-Sn-Zn system has not been studied, till present, in all its extension; at least it was not done a complete optimization and assessment of the phase diagram. D. Malakhov et al. [1], as well as N. Moelans et al. [2], have only optimized and assessed the liquid phase of the ternary system due to the lack of data for the thermodynamic properties of terminal solid solutions as well as on thei...

In this study, the feasibility of ternary mobile phases was examined in a high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-based analysis of carbonyl compounds (CCs). To test the performance of different ternary phases, the liquid phase standards containing a 15 aldehyde/ketone-DNPH(o) mix were analyzed through a series of five-point calibration experiments. For this comparison, three types of ter...

The partitioning behavior of W in a multicomponent Ni-based superalloy and in a ternary Ni–Al–W alloy is investigated using atom-probe tomography APT and first-principles calculations. APT observations indicate that whereas W partitions preferentially to the L12 -precipitates in the ternary alloy, its partitioning behavior is reversed in favor of the fcc -matrix in the multicomponent alloy. Fir...

Phase separation in binary and ternary fluids is studied using a two-dimensional lattice gas automata. The lengths given by the the first zero crossing point of the correlation function and the total interface length is shown to exhibit power law dependence on time. In binary mixtures, our data clearly indicate the existence of a regime having more than one length scale, where the coarsening pr...

Ternary erbium doped BiVO4/TiO2 complexes are synthesized by means of a simple impregnation method with good photoactivities under sun-like excitation for the degradation of phenol. From the structural and morphological characterization it has been stated that the presence of Er induces a slight stabilization of the tetragonal phase probably due to its incorporation in the BiVO4 lattice. Theref...

The liquid-liquid equilibrium (LLE) phase boundaries were determined experimentally for the ternary systems containing refined sunflower oil, methanol, and one of ten potential cosolvents at 308.2 K under atmospheric pressure by using cloud point method. n-Butylamine was found to be one of the best cosolvents, which could substantially enhance the miscibility between the oil and methanol. The L...

To predict double-emulsion formation in a capillary microfluidic device, a ternary diffuse-interface model is presented. The formation of double emulsions involves complex interfacial phenomena of a three-phase fluid system, where each component can have different physical properties. We use the Navier-Stokes/Cahn-Hilliard model for a general ternary system, where the hydrodynamics is coupled w...
