Abstract: | Activities of Cr2O3 in BaO-BaF2-Cr2O3 ternary fluxes are determined using a −Mo|Cr+Cr2O3‖ ZrO2(MgO)‖{Cu-Cr}alloy + (Cr2O3)fluxes|Mo+ solid electrolyte cell in conditions of BaO-BaF2-Cr2O3 system fluxes equilibrium with {Cu-Cr} alloy. Effects of Cr2O3 mole fraction, ratio, and temperature on activities of Cr2O3 are investigated. The results indicate that Cr2O3 activities increase with an increase of its mole fraction, decrease with an increase of ratio, and decrease with an increase of system temperature. It can be concluded from XRD and chemical analysis that the isothermal phase diagrams of BaO-BaF2-Cr2O3 fluxes are composed of nine zones at 1523 K and four zones at 1673 K, respectively. Isoactivity diagrams of the ternary system are given here. Additionally, the factors affecting dephosphorization and chromium retention of the fluxes are also investigated. |
