Vapour Pressure of Liquid Metals and Alloys

Abstract

The Gibbs-Bogoliubov formalism in conjunction with the pseudopotential theory is applied to the calculation of the vapour pressure of eight liquid metals from Groups I to IV of the periodic table and o f alloys (Na-K). The calculated vapour pressure o f the elements and their temperature dependencies, the partial pressures, activities and boiling points of the alloys are all found to be in reasonable agreement with measured data.

An analysis of the specific heat capacity of liquid Au-Sn alloy based on the ideal-associated solution model

“…in the range 1336.15-1600 K [22], CIp = 50.252 -1.2636 x 10-2T (7) and in the range 550-900 K [ 18],…”

Composite MAX phase/MXene/Ni electrodes with a porous 3D structure for hydrogen evolution and energy storage application

“…On the other hand, the vapour pressure of Al in such Ni-Al alloy is lower [62][63][64] which hinders the evaporation of Al and inhibits the process of pore formation. Thus, the addition of Ni to the initial reaction mixture affects not only the composition of the nal sintered products but also the porous structure.…”
