The information provided for the Cu-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. 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 Cu-Sn system is presented.
