In this work, the solubilities of the salt minerals and the densities of solution in two ternary systems sodium chloride–zinc chloride–water and magnesium chloride–zinc chloride–water were measured at 373 K using an isothermal solution saturation method. Based on the determined equilibrium solubility data and the corresponding equilibrium solid phase, the phase diagrams and density diagrams of the two systems were plotted. The results show that the two ternary systems are complex and the eutectic points, the univariant solubility curves and the solid crystalline phase regions are shown and discussed. The phase diagram of the ternary system NaCl−ZnCl₂−H₂O at 373 K is constituted of two eutectic points, three univariant solubility curves and three solid crystalline phase regions corresponding to NaCl, ZnCl₂ and 2NaCl · ZnCl₂. And the phase diagram of the ternary system MgCl₂−ZnCl₂−H₂O at 373 K includes two eutectic points, three univariant solubility curves and three solid crystalline phase regions corresponding to MgCl₂ · 6H₂O, MgCl₂ · ZnCl₂ · 5H₂O and ZnCl₂. The experimental results were simply discussed.
