Abstract

Single crystals of lead with either thallium, indium, bismuth, cadmium, mercury or antimony were tested in tension in liquid air. The critical resolved shear stress τ 0 increases linearly with increasing solute content c in a limited concentration range. The increase Δτ 0/ΔC is lowest for lead-thallium and highest for lead-antimony. When log Δτ 0/ΔC is plotted against log (sf + elf) where sf*[(d 1)Pb − (d 1)sol/(d 1)Pb]10Pb, d 1 being the closest distance of approach, and elf = ΣEn, ΣEn being the sum of the electronegativities of solvent and solute, a straight line of slope 2 results. A similar result is obtained with data from the literature for single crystals of copper alloys and of magnesium alloys. However in these cases a different size factor has to be used.
