| Popis: | A thermodynamic model is proposed to describe the melting of lamellar crystallite in a solid medium. This model includes a modification of the Gibbs–Thomson equation to make it applicable to the above-mentioned crystallites. The need for such modification is supported experimentally by studying the impact of the surroundings on the melting point of the crystallites. In particular, the application of the model to nanocrystals in open-porous systems makes it possible to determine the analytical relations for the melting point, the heat of melting, and the inverse effective size of the pores. The fitting of the experimental data with these functional relations then allows for the calculation of the nanocrystalline density, pressure in the nanocrystal, and difference in the surface tension coefficients at the nanocrystal–matrix interface and melt–matrix interface, as well as the difference in the surface entropies per unit area at the nanocrystal–matrix and melt–matrix interfaces. |
