The freezing mechanism, recently suggested for a monodisperse hard-disk fluid[Huerta et al., Phys. Rev. E, 2006, 74, 061106] is extended here to anequimolar binary hard-disk mixtures. We are showing that for diameter ratios,smaller than 1.15 the global orientational order parameter of the binarymixture behaves like in the case of a monodisperse fluid. Namely, by increasingthe disk number density there is a tendency to form a crystalline-like phase.However, for diameter ratios larger than 1.15 the binary mixtures behave like adisordered fluid. We use some of the structural and thermodynamic properties tocompare and discuss the behavior as a function of diameter ratio and packingfraction.
