Definitions and meanings of "Eutectic"

What do we mean by eutectic?

Of, relating to, or formed at the lowest possible temperature of solidification for any mixture of specified constituents. Used especially of an alloy whose melting point is lower than that of any other alloy composed of the same constituents in different proportions. adjective

Exhibiting the constitution or properties of such a solid. adjective

A eutectic mixture, solution, or alloy. noun

The eutectic temperature. noun

Fusing easily; solidifying at a low temperature: specifically applied by Guthrie to a mixture of substances in such proportions that the fusing-point is lower than that of either of the constituents themselves.

A eutectic substance or mixture, as an alloy. noun

Of maximum fusibility; -- said of an alloy or mixture which has the lowest melting point which it is possible to obtain by the combination of the given components. adjective

A mixture of substances having a composition providing the minimum melting point ofr mixtures of those substances. Called also a eutectic mixture. noun

Describing the chemical composition and/or temperature of a mixture of substances that gives the lowest temperature at which the mixture becomes fully molten. A further requirement is that that temperature is lower than the melting point of any of the pure component substances. adjective

Describing the thermodynamic equilibrium conditions where a liquid coexists with two solid phases. adjective

A material that has the composition of a eutectic mixture or eutectic alloy noun

The temperature of the eutectic point noun

A mixture of substances having a minimum melting point noun

A material that has the composition of a eutectic mixture or eutectic alloy

The temperature of the eutectic point

This means you would be able to tell alot about say the actual structure of the mantle and the internal workings of the earth - I sort of felt a vagueness that eutectic and peritectic stuff should make an appearance but as I can't really remember what that was all about the reality is probably very far away from my comprehension :/ ❋ Unknown (2008)

For brines stronger than eutectic, the temperatures shown are the saturation temperatures for sodium chloride dihydrate. ❋ Unknown (1983)

If it be true, as above suggested, that the force of cohesion is at its minimum in the eutectic alloy, we should expect to find, in preparing a eutectic substance, either that actual expansion took place, or that the molecular volume would gradually increase in passing along our curve of melting-points, from either end, for each molecule added, and that it would obtain its greatest value at the point corresponding to the eutectic alloy. ❋ Various (N/A)

In addition to the di-eutectic alloys, we have also tri - and tetra-eutectic alloys, and as an example of the latter we may take the bismuth-tin-lead-cadmium eutectic alloy, melting at 71°. ❋ Various (N/A)

This agreement is as good as might be expected when one remembers that the melting-points, not being of eutectic mixtures, are difficult to determine, and a considerable range is given; that analyses of mixtures of potassium and sodium salts are apt to vary; and that the two observers differ by ±7° in the temperatures given for the melting-points of the original salts. ❋ Various (N/A)

Although many fusible alloys have been long known, I believe no true eutectic metallic alloy had been studied until Dr. Guthrie [6] worked at the subject, employing the same methods as with his cryohydrates. ❋ Various (N/A)

If this solid be removed as it forms, the temperature gradually falls until a fixed point is reached, at which the eutectic alloy solidifies. ❋ Various (N/A)
