The Integrated Thermodynamic Databank System FactSage©, one of the largest fully integrated database computing systems in chemical thermodynamics in the world, was introduced in 2001 and is the fusion of the FACT-Win/ F.A.C.T and ChemSage/ SOLGASMIX thermochemical packages. FactSage is the result of over 20 years of collaborative efforts between Thermfact/CRCT (Montreal, Canada) and GTT-Technologies (Aachen, Germany). The FactSage package runs on a PC operating under Microsoft Windows® and consists of a series of information, database, calculation and manipulation modules that access various pure substances and solution databases.

FactSage has several hundred industrial, governmental and academic users in materials science, pyrometallurgy, hydrometallurgy, electrometallurgy, corrosion, glass technology, combustion, ceramics, geology, etc. It is used internationally in graduate and undergraduate teaching and research. Users have access to databases of thermodynamic data for thousands of compounds as well as to evaluated and optimized databases for hundreds of solutions of metals, liquid and solid oxide solutions, mattes, molten and solid salt solutions, aqueous solutions, etc. The FactSage software automatically accesses these databases. The evaluated databases for oxides, slags, mattes, etc. Have been developed by optimization of literature data using advanced modeling techniques, several of which have been developed at the.

FactSage can also access the databases for alloy solutions developed by the international, and the databases for steels, light metal alloys and other alloy systems developed by, and the. For detailed information on the various databases click on. With FactSage you can calculate the conditions for multiphase, multicomponent equilibria, with a wide variety of tabular and graphical output modes, under a large range of constraints.
For example, general N-component phase diagram sections can be easily generated with a wide choice of axis variables; matte/metal/slag/gas/solid equilibria can be accurately calculated, tabulated and plotted for industrial systems; multicomponent predominance and EpH diagrams can be readily produced; the course of equilibrium or non-equilibrium solidification can be followed; complex heat balances can be computed; and so on.

Database Information A large number of databases are available for use with FactSage. These cover almost the entire spectrum of materials and allow both simple and complex calculations relating to such topics as the production, application and chemical stability of different materials under different conditions of temperature, pressure and liquid or gaseous environment.
The databases have been developed as a result of critical assessment of published thermodynamic and phase diagram data by international experts over a period of some 40 years. Continuous updating of the databases is undertaken to ensure that the most recent and reliable values are included. The databases include not only a very large number of pure substances, but also alloy categories such as steels, light metal alloys, refractory alloys, copper alloys, lead alloys, noble metal alloys, ultra-pure silicon alloys, solder alloys, etc., as well as a very large general alloy database covering a very broad range of application categories. The oxide and salt databases are the largest available.
Critical assessment work has been continuous for many years, and many phase diagrams produced in their development have been published in the well-known Phase Diagrams for Ceramists “blue books”. The databases find wide application in metals production and refining, where oxide-based slags play a major role, as well as in the production of a wide range of glass-types and oxide-based ceramic materials. Aqueous solution databases enable calculations relating to problems in hydrometallurgy and in corrosion to be investigated. Further specialized databases have been developed for the nuclear, fertilizer and pulp and paper industries.
