The structure of Sn1-xZrx (x = 0.02, 0.05, 0.15, 0.25;
0.35; 0.45) alloys has been studied by means of X-ray diffraction methods at
different temperatures. The structure factors, pair correlation functions and
main parameters have been analyzed. It is shown that the structure of
Sn-enriched liquid alloys is inhomogeneous in the region of pre-crystallization
temperatures. The solidified phases created upon cooling are in agreement with
those present in the equilibrium phase diagram. The X-ray diffraction data were
used to determine more exactly the temperatures of the liquidus curve, which is
not yet completely investigated.
