Abstract
Cadmium and zinc have been used to show that solid solutions occur in contact melting, the second component being deposited and undergoing segregation at dislocations and other defects. It is concluded that supersaturation zones are formed, whose configuration is due to the defects; any increase in these causes increased segregation of the second component in the contact zone. The rate of contact melting is higher in more imperfect crystals. Recovery in imperfect crystals exposed to ionizing radiation minimizes segregation of the second component; and the rate of contact melting becomes lower than that for unirradiated crystals.
