PHASE EQUILIBRIA IN FUSED SALT SYSTEMS: BINARY SYSTEMS OF PLUTONIUM(III) CHLORIDE WITH THE CHLORIDES OF MAGNESIUM, CALCIUM, STRONTIUM AND BARIUM¹

Thermodynamic evaluation of the NaCl–MgCl2–UCl3–PuCl3 system

“…Our optimized phase diagram reproduces the same temperature and X UCl 3 ¼ 0:359. MgCl 2 -PuCl 3 is a simple eutectic system that has been experimentally described by Johnson et al [17]. They reported the eutectic point at T = 923 K and X PuCl 3 ¼ 0:380.…”
