Factors promoting the formation of noncrystalline structures

1. Primary bonds do not extend in all three directions and the secondary bonds are not strong enough.

2. The difference in the free energy of the crystalline and non crystalline phases is small.

3. The rate of cooling from the liquid state is higher than a critical cooling rate.

Solid Solution

A single crystalline phase consisting of two or more elements is called a solid solution.

Substitutional Solid solution of Cu and Zn (FCC)

Interstitial solid solution of C in Fe (BCC)

41

Hume-Rothery Rules for Extensive Solid Solution (Unlimited solubility)

Interstitial solid solution Substitutional solid solution

1. Structure factor

Crystal structure of the two elements should be the same

2. Size factor:

Size of the two elements should not differ by more than 15%

3. Electronegativity factor:

Electronegativity difference between the elements should be small

4. Valency factor:

Valency of the two elements should be the same

42

Ordered Solid Solution

45

Disordered solid solution of β-Brass:

Corner and centre both have 50% proibability of being

Ordered solid solution of β-Brass:

Corners are always occupied by Cu, centres always by Zn

470˚C

Above 470˚C

Below 470˚C

Ordered and random substitutional solid solution

β-Brass: (50 at% Zn, 50 at% Cu)

46

Intermediate Structures

Crystal structure of Cu:

FCC

Crystal structure of Zn:

HCP

Crystal structure of random β-brass: BCC

Such phases that have a crystal structure different from either of the two components are called INTERMEDIATE STRUCURES

If an intermediate structure occurs only at a fixed composition it is called an INTERMETALLIC COMPOUND, e.g. Fe3C in steels.

47

IONIC SOLIDS

Cation radius: R+ Anion radius: R-

1. Cation and anion attract each other.

Usually

RR

2. Cation and anion spheres touch each other

1, 2, 3 => Close packing of unequal spheres

3. Ionic bonds are non-directional

48

IONIC SOLIDS

Local packing geometry

1. Anions and cations considered as hard spheres always touch each other.

2. Anions generally will not touch, but may be close enough to be in contact with each other in

a limiting situation.

3. As many anions as possible surround a central cation for the maximum reduction in electrostatic energy.

5.8 Crystallinity in long chain polymers

Fig. 5.17: semicrystalline polymer

74

Factors affecting crystallinity of a long chain polymer

1. Higher the degree of polymerization lower is the degree of crystallization.

Longer chains get easily entagled

75

Branching

2. More is the branching less is the tendency to crystallize

76

Tacticity

3. Isotactic and syndiotactic polymers can crystallize but atactic cannot.

77

Copoymers: polymeric analog of solid solutions

4. Block and random copolymers promote non crystallinity.
