L. Wu et al., Phase formation in the MgO-B2O3-MgCl2-H2O system with a variable ratio of MgO to B2O3 at 350 degrees C under own vapor pressure, RUSS J IN C, 46(2), 2001, pp. 277-280
An experimental study of phase equilibria in the MgO-MgCl2-B2O3-H2O system
made by liquid sampling at 350 degreesC under vapor pressure shows that the
reaction of MgO with boric acid for 0.16 < MgO:B2O3 < 2.0 in an MgCl2 solu
tion produces a solid phase of variable composition and amorphous to X-rays
. At 200 or 280 degreesC for MgO:B2O3 = 1, ascharite 2MgO .B2O3. xH(2)O cry
stallizes from the same system.
