Abstract
In the present work, information on the integral molar Gibbs energies of mixing is employed to calculate the viscosities of binary substitutional metallic melts. A correlation has been established between the second derivative of the integral molar Gibbs energy of mixing with respect to composition and the corresponding function for the Gibbs energy of activation for viscosity. The viscosities predicted from available thermodynamic data in the case of a number of binary metallic systems using this correlation show satisfactory agreement with the values reported from experimental measurements. The value of this correlation in predicting the viscosities of complex metallic melts is also examined.
