Abstract
The Co-Sb system is of a special attention due to existence of CoSb3 skutterudite structure which is the key structure for doped skutterudite based thermoelectric materials. A critical review of this system, performed recently, shows the published thermodynamic assessment may not be fully correct compared to existing studies. Especially, there is a contradiction in the position of the liquidus line on the Sb-rich side of the phase diagram and of the eutectic reaction, liquid - CoSb3 (Sb). As these data are crucial for the study of thermal stability of skutterudite based thermoelectric materials, a good knowledge on phase relations in the Sb-rich part of the Co-Sb phase diagram is needed. To obtain reliable data, experimental alloys covering 80 to 100 at.% of Sb were prepared and investigated by differential thermal analysis and phase analysis. The data were compared with existing literature information and thermodynamic re-assessment of this binary system based on the CALPHAD approach was done.
