✦ Synopsis

A new model has been proposed to estimate the solid-liquid interfacial energy on the basis of classical nucleation theory. The present model does not need any experimental data on nucleation kinetics, as is the case with the earlier models. The solid-liquid interfacial energy for both pure metals and glass forming liquids has been estimated using the present model. The estimated interfacial energy values have been used to calculate the critical cooling rates required for the formation of glass.

The magnitude of solid/liquid interfacial free energy relative to grain boundary energy in pure metals is estimated from experimental data to be about 0.45. Values of the solid/liquid energy obtained from these data are greater by a factor of about 3/2 than values derived from homogeneous nucleation
