Abstract

AbstractThe solubility v temperature phase diagrams for magnesium, calcium, strontium and barium oxide solutions, in lithium, sodium and potassium chloride melts and in the alkaline earth metal chloride melts, have been analysed. The solutions in the alkali metal chlorides are pseudo‐binary reciprocal ternary mixtures; the more soluble barium and strontium oxides showed small deviations, calcium oxide showed larger deviations while the extremely sparingly‐soluble magnesium oxide showed extensive deviations from ideality. These deviations were related to electrostatic interactions in solution, that depended in turn on some function of reciprocal solute and solvent caiton radii. The solutions in the alkalineearth metal chlorides are binary mixtures with MO · 4 MCl2 solvate formation. — Some preliminary crystallisation experiments were carried out, by slow cooling of saturated solutions in the metal chloride melts: calcium and strontium oxide crystallisation from lithium chloride melts and barium oxide crystallisation from all three alkali metal chloride melts would be worth further investigation.
