Liquid immiscibility in the system NaF–H2O and microlite solubility at 800°C

Resumo

The NaF effect on microlite solubility at 800°C and 170, 200, and 230 MPa is studied experimentally. The immiscibility boundaries and compositions of fluid phases L₁ and L₂ are defined in the system NaF–H₂O at 800°C. It is established that microlite solubility increase in the L₁ phase, as compared with a homogeneous solution, is explained by the appearance in the L₁ phase of “free” HF in an amount of 0.025 ± 0.003 mol kg^–1 H₂O. The model of “acidification” L₁ and “alkalizing” L₂ is supposed.
