Abstract

Using the monolayer approximation for metal-vapour and metal-oxide interfaces and Bragg-Williams statistics, a simple thermodynamic model has been constructed to calculate the variation in contact angle and work of adhesion as a function of composition in binary alloyionocovalent oxide systems. This model has been used to classify the curves of contact angle and the work of adhesion as a function of composition into three main types of isotherm. Model predictions and experimental results are compared using data on binary alloy-monocrystalline alumina systems.
