Solidus curve is the locus of the temperature on the temperature composition graph of an alloy, beyond which the alloy is completely in solid phase. The temperature at this curve is minimum known as solidus temperature at which the crystals in the alloy can coexist with its melt in the thermodynamic equilibrium.
Freezing range for an alloy is the difference of the liquidus and the solidus temperature of an alloy. In this range, the alloy melt starts to crystallize at liquidus temperature and solidifies when reaches solidus temperature.
