Abstract
Abstract Thermodynamic properties of liquid Al-Cu and Al-Zn alloys are investigated using the free volume model. We also analyse local atomic arrangements and concentration fluctuations in both liquid binary alloys from the determination of the Warren-Cowley short-range order. For liquid Al-Cu alloys, our findings indicate a strong preference for heteroatomic nearest-neighbors bonds on the Cu-rich side and weaker ones in the Al-rich part while for the liquid Al-Zn alloy, a tendency to the phase separation is observed. Basing on Darken’s thermodynamic relationship, diffusivity has been examined for both liquid alloys.
