ABSTRACT
In this work, the surface tension of Cu–Ti binary liquid alloys is calculated in the framework of Eyring theory as a function of composition and temperature. It is observed that for all investigated alloys the surface tension can be described by a linear function of the temperature with negative slope, and the temperature coefficient of surface tension decreases as Ti-content of the alloys increases linearly. The obtained theoretical results are compared to the experimental data available in the literature as well as to the theoretical results evaluated by using four models, such as the compound formation model, the quasi-chemical approximation for regular solutions, ideal solution model and Butler model treated in literature frequently.
