Diffusion in a Liquid Indium-Tin Alloy at Several Concentrations

Abstract

Self‐diffusion coefficients for both In¹¹⁴ and Sn¹¹³ as tracers have been measured in the liquid In‐Sn alloy at several concentrations. The temperature range investigated is the range 200°–600°C. The dependence of diffusiveness on temperature at constant composition can be represented by the customary Arrhenius equation for all the compositions investigated. The variation of diffusiveness with composition at constant temperature is also examined, and it gives evidence of a large difference in the behavior of the two tracers.
