We have determined the equilibrium constants and pairwise interaction energies between the species and the complexes of liquid CuSn, AgAl and FeSi, alloys on the basis of regular associated solution model. These parameters are then used to estimate the heat of mixing of each alloy. The observed asymmetry in the heat of mixing of each alloy with respect to concentration is well explained.

The observed asymmetry in the properties of mixing of Fe-Si alloy in molten state is successfully explained on the basis of regular associated solution model. We have determined the free energy of mixing, heat of mixing and entropy of mixing of Fe-Si alloys in molten state at 1873 K. The analysis suggests that heterocoordination leading to the formation of complex Fe 2Si is likely to exist in the liquid and is of a strongly interacting nature. The theoretical analysis reveals that the pairwise interaction energies between the species depend considerably on temperature.Keywords: Liquid alloy; Clusters; Thermodynamic propertiesThe Himalayan Physics Vol.1, No.1, May, 2010Page: 37-40Uploaded Date: 28 July, 2011

The concentration dependent asymmetry in mixing properties of Mg-Tl liquid alloys at 923 K has been investigated on the basis of regular associated solution model. The concentration of ApB type complex in a regular associated solution of Mg and Tl have been determined. We have then used the concentration of complex to calculate the free energy of mixing, enthalpy of mixing, entropy of mixing, activity, concentration fluctuations in long wavelength limit SCC(0) and the Warren Cowley short-range parameter 1 α .The analysis suggests that heterocoordination leading to the formation of chemical complex Mg2Tl is likely to exist in the melt. The analysis reveals that there is a tendency of unlike atom pairing (Mg-Tl) in Mg-Tl alloy whole range of concentration.Keywords: Mg-Tl alloy; microscopic structure; pairwise interaction energy; chemical short range orderDOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/bibechana.v8i0.5692BIBECHANA 8 (2012) 81-89

The large asymmetry observed in the properties of mixing of indium-sodium liquid alloy is discussed on the basis of quasi-lattice chemical model. A special attention is given to the concentration dependence of free energy of mixing, entropy of mixing and heat of mixing. The results explain the observed asymmetry in the properties of mixing of InNa liquid alloys around equi-atomic composition.

The mixing thermodynamic and structural properties of Zn-Cd liquid at 800K has been studied using Flory’s model. To explain the mixing properties of binary liquid alloys, size factor (ф) and ordering energy (ω) are taken into account. Thermodynamic properties like free energy of mixing (GM), activity (a), Heat of mixing (HM) and entropy of mixing (SM) and the microscopic properties like concentration fluctuation in the long wave length limit (Scc(0)) and chemical short range order parameter (α1) have been calculated. Surface property has also been studied with the help of Buttler’s model. The viscosity of the melt has been computed from Kaptay equation and BBK models. Both the viscosity and surface tension of the alloy increase with addition of zinc- component. BIBECHANA 14 (2017) 54-65

In the present work we have considered the antimony-indium liquid alloy which shows anomaly as regards its heat of mixing and the concentration fluctuations in the long-wavelength limit. On the other hand, the free energy of mixing and the entropy of mixing are found to be symmetric about the equi-atomic composition. Such alloying behaviour has been tried to explain on the basis of conformal solution model. This is a statistical mechanical model based on the formation of complex within the liquid alloy. In this model besides the interaction between unlike atoms, that between each constituent element and the complex too is taken into account. In course of theoretical treatment the activity of antimony is also computed for different concentrations. Our results indicate that Sb-In alloys are thermodynamically most stable around the equi-atomic composition.

<p>Theoretical modeling equations are developed by extending regular associated solution model to predict the thermodynamic and structural properties of the liquid Tl−Na alloys at higher temperatures. The thermodynamic properties have been predicted by computing activities of unassociated monomers (a<sub>Tl</sub> and a<sub>Na</sub>) and free energy of mixing (G<sub>M</sub>) at temperatures 673 K, 773 K, 873 K and 973 K. The structural properties have been predicted by computing concentration fluctuation in long wavelength limit (S<sub>CC</sub>(0)), short range order parameter (α<sub>1</sub>) and ratio of mutual to intrinsic diffusion coefficients (D<sub>M</sub>/D<sub>id</sub>) at aforementioned temperatures. These properties have been then correlated with the modified Butler's model to predict the surface properties, such as surface concentrations of free monomers (X<sup>S</sup><sub>Tl</sub> and X<sup>S</sup><sub>Na</sub>) and surface tension (σ) of the alloy at above mentioned temperatures.</p><p><strong>Journal of Nepal Physical Society</strong><em><br /></em>Volume 4, Issue 1, February 2017, Page: 101-110</p>

There are a large number of binary liquid alloys the thermodynamic properties of mixing of which are not symmetrical about the equi-atomic composition-deviating maximally from those of the ideal alloys. Here we have considered three such alloys-indium-sodium, cadmium-sodium and copper-tin-and tried to calculate their heat of mixing at different concentrations of the ingredients. The liquidus lines of these alloys reveal that the constituent species form complexes. So, we have considered a quasi-lattice chemical model for computation of the thermodynamic entities. It is a statistical model in which grand partition function is used assuming that the energy of a given nearest neighbour bond is different if it belongs to the complex than if it does not. For each alloy we have started with the expression for excess free energy of mixing according to this model and computed the free energy of mixing for different concentrations of the metals within it by deriving the value of interaction parameters through successive approximation method. Thereafter, the expression for excess entropy of mixing is taken into account and the entropy of mixing is computed for different concentrations after finding out the temperature derivative of interaction parameters by the method of successive approximation. Finally the heat of mixing is calculated from these free energy of mixing and entropy of mixing on using the standard thermodynamic relation. The results explain the observed asymmetry in the heat of mixing of the said binary liquid alloys around equi-atomic composition.

<p>Binary liquid alloys often show interesting behaviour as regards their thermodynamic properties. The heat of mixing often bears a large negative value and the entropy of mixing an S-shape. The free energy of mixing becomes asymmetric around the equi-atomic composition especially in case of complex forming alloys. In the present theoretical work we have tried to compute the free energy of mixing of some binary alloys e.g. lithium-lead, potassium amalgam and magnesium-tin―all in liquid state near their respective melting points. All these alloys form strongly interacting systems. So, we have applied Flory’s model which is a statistical mechanical model considering the size factor of the constituent species of a binary liquid alloy. We have ignored the interaction between the complex and each ingredient within an alloy and amended the formula accordingly. In the light of observed activity of a metal within an alloy we have ascertained the interchange energy by the method of successive numerical approximations and then calculated the free energy of mixing according to the said model for different concentrations of the ingredients. Our results explain the observed anomaly in the free energy of mixing of the present liquid alloys.</p><p>Journal of Nepal Physical Society Vol.3(1) 2015: 97-101</p>
