Impurity Effects on the Tin Fized-Point Temperature

The purpose of this work is to study the effect of trace impurities on the temperature realised by a high purity (99.9999%) tin fixed-point. This is to improve the measurement of the temperature shift caused by low level impuritydopants, to test the interpolation of previous tin binary alloy systems1 obtained using relatively high levels of impurities and to realise the change in shape of the melting transition for subsequent comparison with theory. The experiments and results revealed the shift of the melting and freezing curves of the initially pure tin cell by -0.71 mK/ppmW of cobalt, -0.18 mK/ppmw of lead and+0.06 mK/ppmW of antimony. It also confirmed the reproducibility of the temperature measurements and melting transition shape in this fixed-point.
