Vapor pressures for the system uranium hexafluoride-chlorine trifluoride at approximately 76, 83, and 92 deg C over the entire composition range are reported. Vapor pressure and gross composition data indicate that the system exhibits complete miscibility. At 75 deg C vapor pressures of 128 and 32 psia were observed at compositions of 0 and 1.0 mole fraction uranium hexafluoride, respectively. The smooth curve within these limits shows a maximum positive deviation from a Raoult's law relationship of approximately 13 pounds occurring at 0.4 mole fraction uranium hexafluoride. (auth)
