The solubility of mixed a-Fe203 and Fe304 in fused NaxSO4 was measured at 1200 K as a function of the melt basicity at 2.14• 10-7 atm 02. At lower Pox, in separate ranges of basicity where either Fe304 or else FeS is the stable phase, the solubilities of these compounds in Na2SO4 were determined. From these solubility measurements, the activity coefficients of NaFeO~, FeS, and FeSO4 in fused NaxSO4 were calculated to be 430, 180, and 0.83, respectively. On this basis, the solubilities of the iron oxides a-Fe203 and Fe304 and the dominant acidic and basic solutes were calculated for the entire regimes of Pox and melt basicity in which these phases are stable in NaxSO4.Hot corrosion occurs at high temperatures in oxidizing environments when a molten salt deposit contacts a metal surface. Hot corrosion by molten Na2SO4 can cause significant damage in gas turbine and other combustionproduct environments. Metal oxides are often the stable phases in contact with fused NaxSO4. Therefore, a knowledge of the solubility behavior of metal oxides in molten Na~ SO4 should assist in understanding hot corrosion processes, especially the initiation of hot corrosion. The solubilities of NiO (1, 2), Co~ O~(1, 2), A]=, O~(3), and Y. 20:~(4) in NaxSO4 have been reported recently. The solubility of a-Fe,., O3 in fused Na2SO4 (5) has been previously measured at 1 atm 02 and 1200 K as a function of the melt basicity, defined as log aNaxo-However, a-Fe~ O:~ is stable only at high Po2 and in a certain basicity regime. As the Pox in a Na2SO4 melt is reduced, F% O4 becomes stable. From the thermodynamic phase stability diagram for the Na-Fe-SO system shown as Fig. 1, the solute species and solubilities of the two iron oxides would be expected to depend upon both the melt basicity and the Pox in the melt. Obviously, solubility measurements at reduced oxygen pressures are needed to provide an overview of the dissolution behavior in the iron-oxygensulfur system in Na2SO4, and to provide insight for extension to other systems.
