Abstract

"The system Al₂O₃-TeO₂-O₂ has been investigated by X-ray diffraction and differential thermal analysis in air and in sealed silica ampoules. The tellurate, Al₂TeO₆, with tellurium in the +6 valence state, forms in air but not in vacuum at 1 mm pressure. A second phase, a tellurite, possibly Al₂Te₂O₇, forms in air or vacuum by devitrification. The glass-forming region is wider than previously stated and is more extensive in vacuum--from 50% to 98% TeO₂. Tentative phase boundaries have been placed for the system in air and vacuum"--Abstract, page ii.
