mixing, fluids, electronic transport, liquid alloys, thermodynamic propertiesAbstract
The concept of complex formation has been incorporated in the structure of the Faber–Ziman formula for the purpose of studying the composition dependence of the electrical resistivities of Zintl alloys, which possess the anomalous nature and exhibit a large deviation from the metallic behavior around a specific composition
