Contact Melting of Metals Explained via the Theory of Quasi-Liquid Layer
Source abstract
Abstract
It has been shown that the contact melting rate for metals is determined by the fact that at least one of them has a quasi-liquid layer on the surface. As a result, the diffusion of metal atoms occurs in the liquid phase, and not in the solid phase, which determines the characteristic contact melting time (seconds and minutes).
