Summary
-
1.
A study of the binary system La2O3-SiO2 made it possible to construct the phase diagram.
-
2.
The compositions and temperatures of the invariant points were determined.
-
3.
The compound 2La2O3·3SiO2, which is lanthanum orthosilicate, La4O(SiO4 3, was synthesized and investigated.
-
4.
The boundaries of the layer-formation region, its upper critical point, and the coexistence temperature of the crystalline phase (SiO2) and the two liquids (glasses) were established.
