S>The complete condensed phase diagram of the ternary system UF/sub 6/ -- ClF/sub 3/ --HF has been determined. The measurements cover all possible compositions and temperature ranging from about --100 to + 100 . The ternary eutectic temperature is --90 at a composition of 0.0 to 0.2 formula % UF/sub 6/, 19.5 formula % ClF/sub 3/, and 80.5 formula % HF. The lowest temperature at which the miscibility gap exists for two liquids saturated with solid UF/sub 6/ is 53 at a composition of 49 formula % UF/sub 6/, 13 formula % ClF/sub 3/, and 38 formula % HF.
