The most stable configuration of the mixture of the 16 salts formed from Li, Na, Rb, Tl/Br, Cl, NO/sub 3/, and S0/sub 4/ con ture which however interact, resulting in a stable mixture. On the basis of exchange reactions the following equation has been derived: LiBr + NaNO/sub 3/ + RbCl + 1/2Tl/sub 2/SO/sub 4/ = 1/ 2LiSO/sub 4/ + NaCl + RbNO/sub 3/ + TlBr. In addition, several binary complexes are also formed, such as Li/sub 2/SO/sub 4/ - Rb/sub 2/SO/sub 4/, 4Li/sub 2/SO/ sub 4/ - RbSO /sub 4/, RbCl - 2Li/sub 2/SO/sub 4/ and possible others. In view of the great interest, the intersection of stable and non-equilibrium tetrahedra consisting of components of both, was experimentally studied by thermai analysis. On the basis of cooling curves the following deflection points have been observed: 453 deg C, precipitation of the first Li/sub 2/SO/sub 4/ crystals; 409 deg , coprecipitation of Li/sub 2/SO/sub 4/ and NaCl; 391 deg , coprecipitation of Li/sub 2/SO/sub 4/, NaCl snd TlBr; and finally at 107 deg , formation of the quaternary eutectic with the previously mentioned salts + RbNO/sub 3/. The microstructures of the stable and non-equilibrium phases are quite similar. (TTT)
