SO4-2-H2O saturated with NaCl·2H2O were investigated with the isothermal method at -15℃. Based on experimental data
phase diagram and density- composition diagram were drawn. The equilibrium phase diagram of quinary system consisted of three invariant points
seven univariant curves and five crystallization fields
corresponding to solids of KCl+NaCl·2H2O
Na2SO4·10H2O+NaCl·2H2O
MgSO4·7H2O+NaCl·2H2O
MgCl2·8H2O+NaCl·2H2O and KCl·MgCl2·6H2O+ NaCl·2H2O. Compared with the phase diagram at 25℃
in the phase diagram at -15℃
the crystalline regions of K2SO4·MgSO4·4H2O
KCl·MgSO4·3H2O
Na2SO4·3K2SO4
Na2SO4·MgSO4·4H2O
MgSO4·(4-6)H2O
K2SO4·MgSO4·6H2O did not exist
the crystalline region of Na2SO4converted into the crystallization field of Na2SO4·10H2O and became larger
the crystallization fields of KCl
MgSO4·7H2O
KCl·MgCl2·6H2O decreased and the crystalline region of MgCl2·6H2O converted into the crystallization field of MgCl2·8H2O. The crystallization behavior of brines with different concentrations in the cooling process was studied. Such information could provide theoretical guidance for comprehensive utilization of salt-lake resource.
