Abstract

Activities of manganese in solid chromium-manganese alloys have been determined at 1223, 1273, and 1323 K using an isopiestic technique. The activities of manganese show positive deviations from Raoult’s law over chromium-rich compositions. The positive deviation of the system is found to decrease progressively with increase in the manganese content of the alloys. The data have been interpreted based on calculation involving solid-liquid equilibria in the system.
