This paper reports the phase equilibria of the systems SrO-CuO and SrO-1/2Bi{sub 2}O{sub 3} studied by X-ray diffraction analysis of quenched powder samples. The compounds SrCuO{sub 2} and Sr{sub 2}CuO{sub 3} melt incongruently at 1085{degrees} and 1225{degrees}C, respectively. The newly found compound Sr{sub 6}Bi{sub 2}O{sub 9} decomposes at 965{degrees}C into SrO and Sr{sub 3}Bi{sub 2}O{sub 6}; Sr{sub 3}Bi{sub 2}O{sub 6} melts incongruently into SrO and liquid at 1210{degrees}C. SrBi{sub 2}O{sub 4} undergoes a phase transition at {approx}825{degrees}C, and although both are nonstoichiometric, the low-temperature phase is slightly poorer in SrO with 33.5 mol% SrO than the high-temperature phase.
