Abstract

The equilibrated grain boundary groove shapes of solid Cd in equilibrium with Sn-Cd-Sb liquid were observed from a quenched sample by using a radial heat flow apparatus. The Gibbs–Thomson coefficient, solid–liquid interfacial energy, and grain boundary energy of the solid Cd were determined from the observed grain boundary groove shapes. The thermal conductivity of the eutectic solid phase for Sn-35.80 at. pct Cd-6.71 at. pct Sb alloy and the thermal conductivity ratio of the liquid phase to the solid phase for Sn-35.80 at. pct Cd-6.71 at. pct Sb alloy at eutectic temperature were also measured with a radial heat flow apparatus and a Bridgman-type growth apparatus, respectively.
