Mineralogical Applications of High-Temperature Reaction Calorimetry,

reportActive / Technical Report | Accession Number: ADA031128 | Open PDF

Abstract:

Mineralogical applications of high-temperature calorimetry may involve either a direct combination and transformation work, or b solution calorimetry. Among these approaches the latter is the more generally useful. A crucial problem in high-temperature solution calorimetry is the proper choice of a suitable solvent. Criteria used in the selection of oxide melt solvents for work on refractory minerals will be outlined. Examples of recent applications of reaction calorimetry to mineral systems will be given. These applications relate to studies of a phase transformations, b disordering processes, and c mineralogical reactions and equilibria. Author
