Abstract:The solubility of rutile has been determined in a series of compositions in the K2O-Al2O3-SiO2 system (K1 = K2O(K2O + Al2O3) = 0.38–0.90), and the CaO-Al2O3-SiO2 system (C1 = CaO(CaO + Al2O3) = 0.47–0.59). Isothermal results in the KAS system at 1325°C, 1400°C, and 1475°C show rutile solubility to be a strong function of the K1 ratio. For example, at 1475°C the amount of TiO2 required for rutile saturation varies from 9.5 wt% (K1 = 0.38) to 11.5 wt% (K1 = 0.48) to 41.2 wt% (K1 = 0.90). In the CAS system at 1475°C, rutile solubility is not a strong function of C1. The amount of TiO2 required for saturation varies from 14 wt% (C1 = 0.48) to 16.2 wt% (C1 = 0.59).The solubility changes in KAS melts are interpreted to be due to the formation of strong complexes between Ti and K+ in excess of that needed to charge balance Al3+. The suggested stoichiometry of this complex is K2Ti2O5 or K2Ti3O7. In CAS melts, the data suggest that Ca2+ in excess of A13+ is not as effective at complexing with Ti as is K+. The greater solubility of rutile in CAS melts when C1 is less than 0.54 compared to KAS melts of equal K1 ratio results primarily from competition between Ti and Al for complexing cations (Ca vs. K).TiKβ x-ray emission spectra of KAS glasses (K1 = 0.43–0.60) with 7 mole% added TiO2, rutile, and Ba2TiO4, demonstrate that the average Ti-O bond length in these glasses is equal to that of rutile rather than Ba2TiO4, implying that Ti in these compositions is 6-fold rather than 4-fold coordinated. Re-examination of published spectroscopic data in light of these results and the solubility data, suggests that the 6-fold coordination polyhedron of Ti is highly distorted, with at least one Ti-O bond grossly undersatisfied in terms of Pauling's rules.
