adj.形容词 adjective

1
- : of greatest fusibility: said of an alloy or mixture whose melting point is lower than that of any other alloy or mixture of the same ingredients.
- : noting or pertaining to such a mixture or its properties: a eutectic melting point.

n.名词 noun

Eutectic salt alloys closely resemble cryohydrates in behavior.
On remelting, the temperature of solidification is found to be quite fixed, and the mixture is evidently eutectic.
Or, in other cases, we may predict from the curve of melting-points that no eutectic alloy is possible.
This, therefore, is the composition of the eutectic alloy, and it finds its place naturally on the curve given in Fig. 2.
This is the only case in which a eutectic mixture is possible, and it is, of course, found at the lowest point of the curve.
