THE ALUMINUM REDUCTION OF MAGNESIUM OXIDE: II. THE VAPOR PRESSURE OF MAGNESIUM OVER THE SYSTEM Al–MgO–CaO

Abstract
The equilibrium vapor pressure of magnesium over the reaction between the calcined dolomite and aluminum was measured by means of the transportation method. In the temperature range 886–1035 °C, the reaction was found to proceed according to the equilibrium[Formula: see text]and the measured equilibrium pressure of magnesium can be expressed by the equation[Formula: see text]
