Abstract: | The phase diagram of the CaSO4-Na2SO4-Ca3(AsO4)2-Na3(AsO4) system was measured by differential thermal analysis and by an equilibration and quenching technique. Thermodynamic models were developed giving the Gibbs energies of all phases as functions of temperature and composition. Optimized model parameters were obtained by assessment of all available thermodynamic and phase equilibrium data. The models, which reproduce all the data within experimental error limits, were used to calculate the liquidus surface of the system. The modified quasi-chemical model in the quadruplet approximation was used for the liquid solution. For the various solid solution phases, the modified quasi-chemical model, which accounts simultaneously for short-range-ordering among first-nearest-neighbor (FNN) and second-nearest-neighbor (SNN) pairs, was used for the first time within the framework of the compound energy formalism. The distinction between true model parameters and formalism parameters is made. Implications of the work for the potential use of sulfate fluxes for copper refining are discussed. |
