Abstract

The viscosities of indium-lead alloys have been determined by using the Ostwald type viscometer. The values have been obtained by a relative technique since the viscometer has been calibrated with indium and lead. Isothermal viscosities show that the negative deviations from ideal mixing decrease with increase in temperature. The results are studied from the stand-point of thermodynamics. The temperature dependence can be described by Arrhenius relation. The activation energy depends on concentration and is close to 1.6 kcal/mole. In the studied temperature range, it has been established that the data can be fitted with Arrhenius relation and Andrade’s equation.
