Abstract
Isothermal sections of the phase diagram of the system MgO-Al2O3-PuO2 at various temperatures were calculated using sublattice models. The r esults show that below 2133 K no liquid occurs in the system. Above 21 33 K liquid starts to form at the Al2O3-PuO2 side. The phase diagram o f the pseudo-binary system PuO2-MgAl2O4 was also obtained from an isop leth T-x calculation. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science B.V.
