Thermodynamic databases allow the compact storage of phase equilibria information in the form of Gibbs energy functions for each phase. The thermodynamic description of each phase
in the binary system is derived from the assessment of the available phase equilibria and thermochemical data. The calculated phase diagram of the Bi-Sn system is presented. The information
provided for the Bi-Sn System consists of five parts: - Diagram: The diagram shows the calculated phase diagram of the system. - Status: The source and status of the analytical description of the
Gibbs energies of the phases. - Additional Assessments: Bibliographic information for alternate thermodynamic descriptions. - Invariant Equilibria: Table with the calculated invariant equilibria of
the system. The table lists the phases involved in the reaction, phase compositions and reaction temperature. - Phases: Table with the phases of the system. The table lists the crystal structure,
common names of the phases and the model used for the thermodynamic description.
