A theoretical study of the thermodynamics of solid solutions and solid-liquid phase equilibrium

We present a new approach to solid solution thermodynamics using the concept of cell theory. We looked particularly at the influence of packing effects on freezing. To isolate this contribution we studied substitutionally ordered and substitutionally disordered binary hard sphere solid solutions. Th...
