Solid Liquid

The solid-liquid interfacial free energies of each of the individual phases comprising the eutectic system, Carbon Tetrabromide-Hexachloroethane, were measured as a function of composition using a “grain boundary groove” technique. Thermodynamic data were combined with groove shape measurements made from high resolution optical photomicrographs of the solid-liquid interfaces to give the interfacial free energy data. An interfacial free energy balance at the eutectic trijunction was performed to obtain all the forces acting on that point. The three interphase interfacial free energies at the eutectic trijunctions as well as a solid-solid phase boundary torque were evaluated.It was found that the solid-liquid interfacial free energies of the two phases of the eutectic could be evaluated from photomicrographs of growing or stationary eutectic interfaces. In addition, it was found that for a substantial range of freezing conditions the eutectic interface shape can be predicted from a knowledge of the interfacial free energies alone.

Zero Charge

The point of zero charge pH of an oxide surface is a fundamental surface chemistry property or solids or metal oxides that determine the nature of interaction at the solid-aqueous solution interface. In colloid chemistry this physical parameter controls the evolution of the electric double layer as well as adsorption and desorption processes.In colloid chemistry a number of methods have been used for the determination of the point of zero charge pH of an oxide surface. This ranges from titrimetric to radiation chemistry approach that deals with scanning electron microscopy.In this study, the direct effect of aqueous solution acidity on the solid-liquid interfacial free energy and the consequence of this effect on spontaneous imbibition of aqueous solution into borosilicate glass have been exploited for the determination of the point of zero charge pH of this type of glass. What is new in this method is that while the traditional titration method relies on neutralization of surface charges, the present method relies on interfacial free energy changes due to aqueous solution pH changes and the effect of this on the wettability of borosilcate glass surface. Result of point of zero charge pH obtained from the present method has been compared with those obtained using traditional methods. The comparison shows close agreements and this proves the technique used in the present work as a novel method for the determination of the point of zero charge pH of oxide surfaces.

A procedure is outlined by which sodium chloride particles of specific surface up to 50 m2 per gm. may be prepared. The particles form in chains and are found to lose area rapidly in moist air. The fundamental units of the chain do not appear cubic. Single cubic particles or chains of cubic particles also have been prepared. The one sample identified as this type had a specific surface of 18 m2 per gm. The sintering in moist air appears to occur by a process of solution and recrystallization. A value of the interfacial free energy solid–liquid is calculated from the data.

AbstractBased on the solid–liquid interfacial free energy theory of the complex Warren binary & pseudo-binary system and through the simplification of it by taking Pb–Cu binary system as an example, the physical model for it in binary immiscible system can be obtained. Next, its thermodynamic formula is derived to obtain a theoretical formula that only contains two parameters, and comparisons are made with regard to γSL calculated values and experimental values of MPE (multiphase equilibrium method) under several kinds of temperatures. As manifested in the outcomes, the improved physical model and theoretical formula will become not only easy to understand but also simple for calculation (the calculated value of γSL depends on two parameters, i.e. temperature and percentage composition of Cu atom). It can be treated as the foundation of application for the γSL calculation of liquid–solid interfacial free energy in other immiscible systems.

Solid–liquid interfacial free energy is shown to be highly anisotropic in alloys of some h. c. p. metals and of two metalloids. This anisotropy is evaluated from a study of the equilibrium shapes of small droplets of alloy liquid entrained within solid grains. Factors affecting the attainment of equilibrium in such droplets are considered, and γ -plots are obtained for solid–liquid interfaces in the h. c. p. metals zinc and cadmium. In the magnesium alloys studied, spherical droplet shapes were observed, indicative of essentially isotropic interfacial energies. Droplet shapes were also analysed in some alloys of bismuth and of antimony. The results are related to current ideas of solid–liquid interfacial structure.
