Abstract

The thermodynamics of magnesium in liquid iron was determined at 1823 K (1550 °C). For this purpose, liquid iron was equilibrated with Ag-Mg alloys in a semienclosed molybdenum vessel. From the partition of magnesium between iron and silver, the activity coefficient of Mg and the self-interaction parameter \( \varepsilon_{\text{Mg}}^{\text{Mg}} \) were determined.
