Solid-State Phase Equilibria in the ZnS-CdS System

Abstract

The ZnS-rich region of the ZnS-CdS phase diagram, up to 18 mol % CdS, was studied over the temperature range 700 to 950 C, and the boundaries describing the equilibria between the sphalerite and wurtzite solid solutions were determined. X-ray diffraction analysis was the principal technique used, the phase boundaries being determined by the lattice-parametric and disappearing phase methods. The results indicate that the solubility of CdS in ZnS is extensive in both the sphalerite and wurtzite phases, with CdS stabilizing the wurtzite phase. Keywords: Cadmium sulfides, Zinc sulfides.
