Abstract
The quasi-chemical theory and the quasi-lattice theory are discussed with a view to obtaining information about concentration fluctuations, SCC(0), and the short-range order parameter, α1, for regular and compound-forming molten alloys. The influence of the coordination number z and the interchange energy ω on the mixing properties of the alloy is critically examined. SCC(0) and α1 have been found to be very useful in extracting microscopic information, like local ordering and segregation in molten systems. The problem of glass formation in compound-forming binary molten alloys is also briefly discussed.Keywords
