Property Diagram

The Property Diagram is an interface to display experimental and calculated property values for a selected ternary system.

Future

Currently only experimental values are avialable.

Component

A (top), B (left), C (right) represent the components at the vertex of the ternary plot. You can search the component by clicking on the field to select the component from the dropdown list.

Tip

You can drag the component fields to change the position (vertex) of the components in the ternary plot when run search.

An autocomplete dropdown list will be shown when you click on the component fields (A, B, and C):

Complex Mode

Toggle the Complex Mode switch to enable the search for complex systems.

Once enabled, you can select multiple components in one component field.

Percentage

Total percentage no less than this value, default is 99.5%.

The allowed value is from 90 to 100. A preset dropdown list will be shown when you click on the field for the percentage, You can quickly click on the desired value.

The default values in the dropdown list range from 90 to 100.

Specify the kind of percent for the percentage field. The following options are available:

1. Molar %
2. Weight %
3. Atomic %

The default is in Molar%.

Note

In ternary plots, the composition data will be rescaled and normalized so that the sum of all components equals 100.

Therefore, it is important to limit the total percentage to an appropriate value because the composition data will be rescaled and normalized to 100.

Property

Select the individual property you would like to display. This is optional.

An autocomplete dropdown list will be shown when you click on the property field:

After selection, the property unit is displayed in the unit field and you can enter the Min/Max value (optional).

Unit

Future

The unit option for property is currently unavailable. It is planned to add this option in the future.

Min/Max field

The User can select the property limits that are to be expressed in the Min and Max fields. If the Max and Min fields remain empty, the system searches for all occurrences of the specified properties with all possible values.

Paste

Paste the composition copied from other places. This is not available yet.

Clear

You can click on the Clear button to clear all the content or click on the Refresh icon button next to each field to clear only that field.

Run

Click on the Run button to search with the entered components and the chosen property.

Example

Enter SiO2, B2O3, Na2O and with total percentage no less than 99.5 in mol%:

Warning

Hovering may slow down with over 2000 data points, as Plotly doesn't support WebGL for ternary plots.

Until Plotly supports WebGL for ternary plots, the number of data points should be limited to 2000 or less for performace concern.

With property Density at 20°C g/cm3 applied:

A color bar is displayed accordingly when a property is selected.

Hovering on the points displays the tooltip of property value, the rescaled compositions, the table ID and the glass number.

If you want to open the calculation result, you can double-click on the data point. Or you can right-click on the data point to open the context menu for more options such as opening table.

Tip

Double-click/right-click on the data point also works for the plots in Result Card (Visualization view) and Detail Card (Table view).
