Molten oxides have been of potential interest as fuels for nuclear reactors. To obtain additional information about the constitution of these systems, the molar volume and surface tension of the NaPO 4 –Li 2 SO 4 , NaPO 4 –Na 2 SO 4 , NaPO 4 –Rb 2 SO 4 , and NaPO 3 –UO 2 SO 4 solutions were determined for the NaPO 2 –rich region. The observed properties were found to vary linearly with temperature in all cases. Although the results of other types of investigations were found to be nonideal, the volume behavior of all the mixtures was additive.
