Ternary Systems NaHal–NaVO3–Na2CrO4 (Hal = Cl, Br)

Abstract

Phase equilibria in the ternary systems NaHal–NaVO₃–Na₂CrO₄ (Hal = Cl, Br) were studied. By differential thermal analysis, eutectic alloys were found at points with coordinates (14.0 mol % NaCl, 66.5 mol % NaVO3, 19.5 mol % Na₂CrO₄, 530°C) and (27.0 mol % NaBr, 47.5 mol % NaVO₃, 25.5 mol % Na₂CrO₄, 499°C). By differential scanning calorimetry, the specific enthalpies of melting of the eutectics were determined. X-ray powder diffraction analysis of the eutectic alloy in the system NaBr–NaVO₃–Na₂CrO₄ was made.
