Melting temperature atomization

Figure 12 shows possible mechanisms of particle formation during PGSS operation. Under the influence of CO2 concentration, melt temperature, atomization pressure and feed rate, these mechanisms predict the formation of completely solid spherical particles, a hollow spherical particles, agglomerated distorted particles or sponge like particles. 

It is interesting to note that this behaviour also provides an explanation of Tamanns rule (typically at 2/3 of the melting temperature atomic transport becomes significant). 

The term glass has two meanings, ie, the material and a state of matter. The glassy or vitreous condition is where the atoms of the material have a random orientation. This amorphous or noncrystalline nature leads to physical properties typical of the product caHed glass, including unpredictable breaks, no sharp melting temperature, and no heat of fusion. 

Enthalpy of Fusion The enthalpy (heat) of fusion AiTfus is defined as the difference of the enthalpies of a unit mole or mass of a solid and hquid at its melting temperature and one atmosphere pressure of a pure component. There are no generally apphcable estimation techniques that are very accurate. However, if the melting temperature is known, the atomic group contribution method of Chickos et al. " yields approximate results ...

The IR spectrum obtained at ambient temperature (Fig. 74, curve 1) shows the presence of a strong wide band at 535 cm 1 and a weak shoulder at about 643 cm 1. At the melting temperature (curve 2), the only discemable band observed is shifted slightly toward the higher wave numbers and occurs at 535-540 cm 1. This high frequency shift, which accompanies the melting, is related to changes in the distances between the central atom and the first and second coordination spheres, as illustrated in Fig. 75.

To melt the giant structure of diamond, very strong covalent bonds (1) between carbon atoms (1) must be broken. In contrast, only weak van der Waals forces (1) between iodine (I2) molecules (1) need to be broken when iodine is heated beyond its melting temperature. The strong covalent bonds within the iodine molecules are not affected. 

Finally, if the temperature increases, becomes larger until the crystal melts. The Lindemann criterion predicts that melting sets in when becomes about 0.25 a2, where a is the interatomic distance of the metal. Because the mean squared displacements of surface atoms is higher we expect that the surface melts at lower temperatures than the bulk does [2]. Indeed, evidence has been presented that the (110) surface of lead starts to melt at 560 K whereas the bulk melting temperature is about 600 K [13].
