As-Zn (Arsenic-Zinc)
H. Okamoto
The assessed As-Zn phase diagram is based primarily on [21Hei] for the As-rich
liquidus and invariant reactions, on [79Laz] for the homogeneity range of
As2Zn, and on [81Laz] for the liquidus near As2Zn3, with review of the data of
[06Fri]. The equilibrium diagram at 1 atm pressure should involve the gaseous
As phase. The equilibrium phases are (1) the liquid, L; (2) the rhombohedral
terminal solid solution, (As); (3) monoclinic As2Zn; (4) b-, a›-, and aAs2Zn3-,
and (5) the hexagonal terminal solid solution, (Zn). It must be noted that
the phase boundaries on the As-rich side were measured under unspecified
pressures higher than 1 atm.
The L = (As) + As2Zn eutectic point is at 21 at.% Zn and 723 C [21Hei].
As2Zn dissociates incongruently into As2Zn3 and As4 gas. The dissociation
pressure is log (P mmHg) = -12 300/T + 15.0 [59Lyo]. The L = As2Zn + As2Zn3
eutectic point is 41 at.% Zn and 750 C [21Hei].
The b to a› transition temperature was reported variously by different
investigators The result of [75Pis], 651 C, is shown in the assessed diagram.
The homogeneity range of As2Zn3 is narrow [21Hei]. More precisely, the
solubility of As in bAs2Zn3 is at least 0.002 at.% at 672 C [81Laz]. The
solubility of As in aAs2Zn3 does not exceed 5 x 10-4 at.% [81Laz].
The L = As2Zn3 + (Zn) eutectic temperature and the melting point of Zn are
essentially the same [06Fri, 21Hei].
AsZn2 reported by [04Kon] may be As2Zn3. The lattice parameter vs composition
diagrams of the As2Cd3-As2Zn3 system given by [64Zda1], [64Zda2], and [65Cas]
indicated existence of a modification of As2Zn3 with the same
crystal structure as a››As2Cd3. The existence of this Zn3P2-type phase was
reported earlier by [35Sta]. However, the relation to other polymorphic forms
has not been reported.
In a review on the effect of pressure on the As-Zn phase diagram [87Cla], the
change in the liquidus surface at up to 4 GPa is illustrated.
[73Cla] and [75Cla] determined the pressure-temperature diagram of As2Zn up to
42 kbar. The melting point of As2Zn decreased from 723 C at ambient pressure
to 679 C at 19.0 kbar.
[75Cla] found that AsZn forms as a decomposition product of As2Zn at high
pressure and temperature and also by a reaction As2Zn3 + As <259> 3AsZn at 40
kbar and 800 to 1200 C. The orthorhombic structure was determined by [76Cla].
The pressure-temperature diagram of As2Zn3 under pressures up to 40 kbar was
first determined by [66Jay]. A similar but more detailed diagram for the same
pressure range was published by [75Pis].
