Abstract
Subsolidus (500–700°C) phase relations in the K2O-MgO-B2O3 system have been studied by X-ray diffraction. The results are used to construct the phase compatibility diagram of the K2O-MgO-B2O3 system in the range 650–700°C. A new ternary compound of composition K2Mg3B2O7, with the constituent oxides in the molar ratio 1: 3: 1, is identified.
