Studies of Phase Equilibria in Ternary KBr-SrBr2-H2O and NaBr-SrBr2-H2O Systems at 308 K
The phase equilibria of the KBr-SrBr2-H2O and NaBr-SrBr2H2O ternary systems at 308 K were measured using the isothermal dissolution equilibrium method. The compositions of the liquid and solid phases were expressed as the mass fraction, and the phase diagrams constructed from the experimental data show that both ternary systems are simple co-saturated types with only one invariant point, two univariant curves, and two crystallization regions. Neither of the two ternary systems forms a double-salt or solid solution. The solid-phase crystallization regions of the KBr-SrBr2-H2O ternary system correspond to KBr and SrBr2 center dot 6H(2)O, and the invariant point of the NaBr-SrBr2-H2O ternary system is saturated with NaBr2 center dot H2O and SrBr2 center dot 6H(2)O. From the phase diagrams, the salting-out effect of SrBr2 on KBr is clear, which indicates that the solubility of KBr is lower and it is easier to separate KBr from solution in the ternary KBr-SrBr2-H2O system at 308 K.
