Abstract

A complete critical evaluation of all available phase-diagram and thermodynamic data has been performed for all condensed phases of the LiCl-NaCl-KCl-RbCl-CsCl-MgCl2-CaCl2 system, and optimized model parameters have been found. The model parameters obtained for binary and ternary subsystems can be used to predict thermodynamic properties and phase equilibria for the multicomponent system. The modified quasi-chemical model for short-range ordering was used for the molten salt phase. Particularly in solutions with MgCl2 and KCl, RbCl, or CsCl, the calculations indicate a large dregree of ordering on the cationic sublattice, with Mg-Alkali second-nearest-neighbor pairs being favored.
