Ca-Zn (Calcium-Zinc)
H. Okamoto

The Ca-Zn phase diagram in [Massalski2] was as assessed
by [1990Itk] mainly based on the extensive DTAwork done by
[1963Mes]. Ca7Zn4 and Ca7Zn20 were modified to Ca5Zn3 and
CaZn3, respectively, based on later reports on crystal structures.
No experimental phase diagrams have been reported on this
system after [1990Itk]. Nevertheless, [1990Itk], [2001Bru],
[2008Spe], and [2009Was] thermodynamically assessed the
data of [1963Mes]. All calculated phase diagrams are in good
agreement with the data of [1963Mes]. Figure 1 shows the
most recent result of [2009Was].
