Theoretical calculations of the surface tension of Ag(1−x)–Cu(x) liquid alloys

Estimating of Surface Tension and Viscosity of Liquid Ag-Cu Alloys

“…The surface tension and viscosity values and the other model parameters for the surface tension and viscosity of pure components at 1423K and 1373 K were taken from the current literature [9,10] for the present study. These parameters for pure liquid metals are given in Table 1.…”

“…Due to the oxygen adsorption tendency, the surface tensions of the samples vary considerably. Some of the investigations in the existing literature on the surface tension of binary Ag-Cu liquid alloys can be found in references [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] thermodynamic properties of materials. Based on the principle of thermodynamics theory, it is obvious that the theoretical calculation of the above-mentioned Eyring theory is a fruitful procedure to investigate [12,2] using several models such as Guggenheim equation [13,3], which is a perfect solution model, improved Guggenheim [12,2], Butler [14,15], ideal Butler [16], ideal solution [17,4] and the geometric model of Kohler [18,5], Egry models [19,20] have already been proposed to predict the surface tension of molten alloys.…”
