Structure and Physical Properties of Liquid Ni2Sb98 Eutectic Alloy

Article Preview

Abstract:

The liquid structure of Ni2Sb98 eutectic alloy is studied with the method of X-ray diffraction and measurements of viscosity in this paper. Covalent bonding structures, which are characterized by the shoulder on the high- Q side of the first peak of structure factors, are observed over the full measuring temperature range. And the split of second peak of the pair correlation function suggests that the chemical short-range order structure exits in the melt. Correspondingly, variation of the viscosity obeys the Arrhenius law except the abrupt point near 1025K and the electrical resistivity changes abnormally at about 1020K. In addition, the coordination numbers prove that the A7-like structure is almost destroyed in liquid Ni2Sb98 alloy. This research is aim to provide new insight into the structure evolution of liquid alloys during the cooling process.
