The Associated Phase Diagram and Thermodynamics Committee (APDTC) was founded in 1999 on the basis of the Polish Phase Diagram Committee.* Currently, the Associated Committee comprises individual members and groups (around 90 people), active in the fields of phase equilibria and thermodynamics of alloys, from more than 30 research institutes and universities in 11 countries. Once a year a survey is sent to members and its results are included in the APDTC report to APDIC.
Associated Committee has the following objectives:
- to be the place for discussion on work related to phase equilibria and thermodynamics,
- to promote phase diagrams among other people active in materials science in home countries,
- to encourage international cooperation, by spreading information among members on funding opportunities for grants, scholarships for young researchers,
- to interact with APDIC, representing it in the home countries, and informing APDIC about members’ activities.
