Substitutional Solid Solutions

Factors for high solubility:
  • Atomic size factor - atoms need to “fit” ⇒ solute and solvent atomic radii should be within ~ 15%
  • Crystal structures of solute and solvent should be the same
  • Electronegativities of solute and solvent should be comparable (otherwise new inter-metallic phases are encouraged)
  • Generally more solute goes into solution when it has higher valency than solvent
