Measuring Interdiffusion in Binary Liquids

Abstract

Liquid-phase binary interdiffusion sample is prepared by enclosing wires of two metals in a capillary tube with ends touching. While sample is at elevated temperature, tube is kept oriented with lighter metal at top to prevent convection. New method is potential research tool in such areas as zone refining of metals, recycling of spent fuel rods, and improving removal of slag and inclusions from steel castings.
