Interaction of Bi2O3 - B2O3 Melts with Crucible Materials
The wetting of crucible materials (Ag, Au, and BeO) by B2O3-Bi2O3 melts with low content of second component was investigated by the method of sessile drop. The effect of temperature on the wetting of substrates by the B2O3-based melts was determined. The obtained values of molar work of adhesion point to physical interaction of the phases.
