Solid–Liquid Metastable Phase Equilibria in the Ternary System (MgCl2 + MgSO4 + H2O) at 323.15 K

详细

The solubilities and the densities in the aqueous ternary system (MgCl₂ + MgSO₄ + H₂O) at 323.15 K were determined by the isothermal evaporation method. The phase diagram was drawn for this system at 323.15 K. The phase diagram consists of two invariant points, three univariant curves, and three crystallization regions corresponding to bischofite (MgCl₂ · 6H₂O), tetrahydrate (MgSO₄ · 4H₂O) and hexahydrite (MgSO₄ · 6H₂O). Neither double salts nor solid solution was found. Based on the Pitzer and Harvie–Weare (HW) model, the solubility equilibrium constants for the salts were fitted with the solubilities in this research work, and the solubilities of the ternary system at 323.15 K were calculated. Comparisons between the calculated and measured solubilities show that the predicted data agree well with the experimental results.
