Dynamic surface-tension measurements using the sessile drop method and acquisition times of a few seconds make it possible to study the evolution of the surface of molten metals and alloys and so reliably validate the predictive models of the interactions between pure liquid metals and an oxidizing atmosphere, in both an inert gas carrier and in a vacuum. The presence of active oxidation contributes to maintaining surface cleanness and then strongly affects the shape of the boundary separating oxidation and de-oxidation regimes. Recently the general physical–mathematical analysis we developed for pure liquid metals has been extended to liquid binary alloys and their oxides. In this work we present the experimental results of tests on some binary alloys chosen as test systems to try to obtain a preliminary validation of the extended model. The theoretical results obtained, indicating that the behaviour of the alloy towards oxidation tends to be similar to that of the less oxidizable component, have thus been confirmed experimentally.
