Özet

The equilibrated grain boundary groove shapes for the solid β phase in Al-Zn liquid solutions were observed on quenched samples. From the observed grain boundary groove shapes, the Gibbs-Thomson coefficient for solid β (Al-84 wt.% Zn) in Al-Zn liquid solutions has been determined to be (3.41 ± 0.14) × 10-8 Km with a numerical method. The solid-liquid interfacial energy between solid β and Al-Zn liquid solution has been obtained to be (106.94 ± 9.62) × 10-3 J m-2 from the Gibbs-Thomson equation. The grain boundary energy for the same material has been calculated to be (204.72 ± 22.52) × 10-3 J m-2 from the observed grain boundary groove shapes. The thermal conductivities of the solid and liquid phases for Al-95 wt.% Zn and Al-84 wt.% Zn systems have also been measured. © 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
