  2. Solid solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solid_solution

    The IUPAC definition of a solid solution is a "solid in which components are compatible and form a unique phase". [3]The definition "crystal containing a second constituent which fits into and is distributed in the lattice of the host crystal" given in refs., [4] [5] is not general and, thus, is not recommended.

  3. Homogeneity and heterogeneity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneity_and_heterogeneity

    Homogeneity and heterogeneity; only ' b ' is homogeneous Homogeneity and heterogeneity are concepts relating to the uniformity of a substance, process or image.A homogeneous feature is uniform in composition or character (i.e., color, shape, size, weight, height, distribution, texture, language, income, disease, temperature, radioactivity, architectural design, etc.); one that is heterogeneous ...

  4. Homogenization (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogenization_(chemistry)

    Homogenization (from "homogeneous;" Greek, homogenes: homos, same + genos, kind) [5] is the process of converting two immiscible liquids (i.e. liquids that are not soluble, in all proportions, one in another) into an emulsion [6] (Mixture of two or more liquids that are generally immiscible).

  5. Homogeneity (disambiguation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homogeneity_(disambiguation)

    Homogeneous catalysis, a sequence of chemical reactions that involve a catalyst in the same phase as the reactants Homogeneous (chemistry) , a property of a mixture showing no variation in properties Homogenization (chemistry) , intensive mixing of mutually insoluble substance or groups of substance to obtain a soluble suspension or constant

  6. Asymptotic homogenization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymptotic_homogenization

    Of course, all matter is inhomogeneous at some scale, but frequently it is convenient to treat it as homogeneous. A good example is the continuum concept which is used in continuum mechanics . Under this assumption, materials such as fluids , solids , etc. can be treated as homogeneous materials and associated with these materials are material ...

  7. Liquidus and solidus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquidus_and_solidus

    The solidus is the locus of temperatures (a curve on a phase diagram) below which a given substance is completely solid (crystallized). The solidus temperature specifies the temperature below which a material is completely solid, [2] and the minimum temperature at which a melt can co-exist with crystals in thermodynamic equilibrium.

  8. Intermetallic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermetallic

    The definition of metal includes: Post-transition metals, i.e. aluminium, gallium, indium, thallium, tin, lead, and bismuth. Metalloids, e.g. silicon, germanium, arsenic, antimony and tellurium. Homogeneous and heterogeneous solid solutions of metals, and interstitial compounds such as carbides and nitrides are excluded under this definition ...

  9. Solution (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solution_(chemistry)

    Making a saline water solution by dissolving table salt in water.The salt is the solute and the water the solvent. In chemistry, a solution is defined by IUPAC as "A liquid or solid phase containing more than one substance, when for convenience one (or more) substance, which is called the solvent, is treated differently from the other substances, which are called solutes.
