Phase-equilibrium data and the liquidus for the system "MnO"-CaO-(Al 2 O 3 -SiO 2 ) at a manganeserich alloy saturation have been determined in the temperature range from 1423 to 1723 K. The results are presented in the form of a pseudoternary section "MnO"-CaO-(Al 2 O 3 ϩ SiO 2 ) with an Al 2 O 3 / SiO 2 weight ratio of 0.41. The following primary phases are present in the range of conditions investigated: 3Al 2 O 3 и2SiO 2 ; SiO 2 ; MnOиAl 2 O 3 и2SiO 2 ; (Mn,Ca)OиSiO 2 ; 2(Mn,Ca)OиSiO 2 ; MnOи Al 2 O 3 ; (Mn,Ca)O; ␣ -2CaOиSiO 2 ; ␣ Ј-2CaOиSiO 2 ; 2CaOиAl 2 O 3 иSiO 2 ; CaOиSiO 2 , and CaOиAl 2 O 3 и 2SiO 2 . The presence of alumina in this system is shown to have a significant effect on the liquidus compared to the system "MnO"-CaO-SiO 2 , leading to the stabilization of the anorthite and gehlenite phases.
