Abstract: The solubilities of the ternary CeCl3-CdCl2-H2O system and the quaternary CeCl3-CdCl2-HCl-H2O system were determined at 25 ℃,and the corresponding equilibrium diagrams were constructed. The results show that the ternary system was complicated with five equilibrim solid phases, and they are CdCl2•2.5H2O,CdCl2•H2O, 6CdCl2•CeCl3•14H2O (6:1 type), 4CdCl2•CeCl3•12H2O(4:1 type) and CeCl3•7H2O.The quaternary system was also complicated with five equilibrium solid phases, that is, CdCl2•H2O, 9CdCl2•CeCl3•19H2O (9:1 type), 6CdCl2•CeCl3•14H2O (6:1 type), 4CdCl2•CeCl3•12H2O (4:1 type) and CeCl3•7H2O.Three new compounds, 9CdCl2•CeCl3•19H2O, 6CdCl2•CeCl3•14H2O,and 4CdCl2•CeCl3•12H2O have not yet been reported in literatures, and they were congruently soluble in the quaternary.6CdCl2•CeCl3•14H2O was a kind of metastable compound in the ternary system, and it was changed into 4CdCl2•CeCl3•12H2O with time. Both 6:1 type and 4:1 type were non-congruently soluble compounds in the ternary system. The three new compounds have been prepared and have been characterized by XRD, TC-DTG, and DSC. X-ray powder diffraction patterns are indicated.
