The solidus temperature specifies the temperature below which a material is completely solid, [2] and the minimum temperature at which a melt can co-exist with crystals in thermodynamic equilibrium. Liquidus and solidus are mostly used for impure substances (mixtures) such as glasses , metal alloys , ceramics , rocks , and minerals .
Critical temperature. Following from the previous rule it is found that recrystallization requires a minimum temperature for the necessary atomic mechanisms to occur. This recrystallization temperature decreases with annealing time. Critical deformation. The prior deformation applied to the material must be adequate to provide nuclei and ...
Squalane is the organic compound with the formula ((CH 3) 2 CH(CH 2) 3 CH(CH 3)(CH 2) 3 (CH 2) 3 CH(CH 3)(CH 2) 2) 2. A colorless hydrocarbon, it is the hydrogenated derivative of squalene, although commercial samples are derived from nature. [3] In contrast to squalene, due to the complete saturation of squalane, it is not subject to auto ...
Isothermal transformation diagrams (also known as time-temperature-transformation (TTT) diagrams) are plots of temperature versus time (usually on a logarithmic scale). They are generated from percentage transformation-vs time measurements, and are useful for understanding the transformations of an alloy steel at elevated temperatures.
Tammann temperature was pioneered by German astronomer, solid-state chemistry, and physics professor Gustav Tammann in the first half of the 20th century. [1]: 152 He had considered a lattice motion very important for the reactivity of matter and quantified his theory by calculating a ratio of the given material temperatures at solid-liquid phases at absolute temperatures.
The temperature range for process annealing ranges from 260 °C (500 °F) to 760 °C (1400 °F), depending on the alloy in question. This process is mainly suited for low-carbon steel. The material is heated up to a temperature just below the lower critical temperature of steel.
The Simon–Glatzel equation [1] is an empirical correlation describing the pressure dependence of the melting temperature of a solid.The pressure dependence of the melting temperature is small for small pressure changes because the volume change during fusion or melting is rather small.
The Joback method, often named Joback–Reid method, predicts eleven important and commonly used pure component thermodynamic properties from molecular structure only. It is named after Kevin G. Joback in 1984 [1] and developed it further with Robert C. Reid. [2] The Joback method is an extension of the Lydersen method [3] and uses very similar groups, formulas, and parameters for the three ...
