Abstract

The surface tension of liquid chromium and the effect of oxygen on the surface tension were determined by the levitated droplet method. It was found that the surface tension of pure liquid chromium can be represented by: γ=1780-0.544(T-2148) mN.m -1 Measurements were made over a temperature range from 1920 to 2218 K, including an incursion of 228 K into the supercooled liquid state. The effect of oxygen on the surface tension of liquid chromium was found to be less pronounced than that on the surface tension of liquid iron, nickel and cobalt
