Diagrammes de phases des systemes binaires KNO3-CsNO3 et KNO3-NaNO3

(K?Na)NO₃ and (K?Cs)NO₃ phase diagrams were drawn using a simultaneous thermal analysis technique in the range 373 to 623 K. The first phase diagram shows a minimum freezing equimolar mixture at 494 K, a continuous solid solution in equilibrum with liquid phase and an eutectic mixture (88 molar % of KNO₃) at 380 K. The second one exhibits an invariant at 400 K corresponding to the KNO₃ solid-solid transition, an eutectoid mixture at 10 molar % of KNO₃ and 418 K involving the CsNO₃ solid-solid transition and an eutectic mixture at 60 molar % of KNO₃ and 495 K.
