Ab initiomolecular dynamics simulations were performed at pressures and temperatures up to 160 GPa and 4000 K, in order to obtain equations of state (EOS) for CO and CO2fluids. We found that polymerisation of CO and CO2fluids starts at low pressures, and that including the effect of polymerisation is essential for accurate EOS. EOSs for CO and CO2determined from methods using experimental data, or classical potentials that ignore the changes in speciation, should be treated with caution when extrapolated beyond the examined pressures and temperatures. The obtained data was fitted to a modified Lee and Kesler EOS for both CO and CO2fluids. The thermodynamic calculations for the decarbonation reactions of both MgCO3and CaCO3using the derived CO2EOS reproduced the experimental data and theoretical calculations at low pressures. Both MgCO3and CaCO3pure phases are found to be stable in the upper mantle compared to CO2. However, they both become destabilised when approaching lower mantle conditions.
