ternary systems

A ternary system is a way of describing the composition of a mixture made up of three different components or substances. Imagine a support or scale that shows the proportions of these three parts—each component's percentage adds up to 100%. In materials science, chemistry, or geology, ternary diagrams help visualize how varying amounts of three substances influence the system's properties or phases. These diagrams are useful tools for understanding complex interactions within multi-component mixtures, enabling scientists to predict behaviors and optimize material compositions.
