Quasi-Chemical Model for Liquid Li-Cd Alloys

Abstract

The quasi-chemical model based on pairwise interactions is used to study the concentration dependent thermodynamic properties of Li-Cd liquid alloys. Special attention is given to the concentration-concentration correlation function in the long wavelength limit [Scc(O)] and the chemical short-range order parameter (CSRO). The activity, free energy of mixing, Scc(O) and CSRO are computed as functions of temperature and concentration.
