Inorganic Materials Aims and scope

Abstract

Using the method of thermodynamic simulation, the equilibrium composition of products of heating of plagioclases, pyroxenes, peridots, and magnetite is determined in a temperature range of 1000–1400°C in inert, oxidizing, and reducing atmospheres. The possibility of controlling the products of melting and crystallization of the above minerals is shown, and the behavior of a series of accessory metals (Ti, Mn, Cr, V) in these processes is evaluated.
