Phase equilibria in the cutting elements LiF–KCl–Li2WO4 and LiF–KCl–LiKWO4 of the quaternary reciprocal system Li, K‖F, Cl, WO4

Аннотация

The quaternary reciprocal system comprising fluorides, chlorides, and tungstates of lithium and potassium was partitioned into simplexes using graph theory, and a phase tree of the system was constructed. In the cutting triangles LiF–KCl–Li₂WO₄ and LiF–KCl–LiKWO₄ by differential thermal analysis, the melting points and compositions of ternary eutectics were determined, and the crystallization fields of phases are delineated. For each element of the state diagram, phase reactions were described. The compositions of crystallizing phases in the cutting triangles LiF–KCl–Li₂WO₄ and LiF–KCl–LiKWO₄ were confirmed by X-ray powder diffraction analysis.
