Ternary systems are those having three components. Because of its unique geometric characteristics, an equilateral triangle the simplest means for plotting ternary composition.
For the purposes of phase equilibria, such an equilateral triangle is known as composition triangle or Gibbs' triangle.
The three pure component metals are represented at the apexes, A, B, and C. Binary composition is represented along the edges, i.e., the binary systems AB, AC, and BC. And ternary alloys are represented within the area of the triangle.
To find the composition of the alloy at a point of we simply draw three lines from this point parallel to the sides of the triangle. E.g., to find the composition of A in the alloy, draw line parallel to side opposite of 100% A. Where this line cuts the % A axis, gives us the composition of A in the alloy.
