fayalite in a sentence
Examples
- Forsterite has an unusually high melting temperature at atmospheric pressure, almost, but the melting temperature of fayalite is much lower ( about ).
- Fayalite is stable with quartz at low pressures, whereas more magnesian olivine is not, because of the reaction olivine + quartz = orthopyroxene.
- Therefore, the gas atmosphere in furnace can be calculated through the ratio of magnetite / fayalite in slag ( Hauptmann 2007, 22 ).
- Green sand for aluminum typically uses olivine sand ( a mixture of the minerals forsterite and fayalite, which is made by crushing dunite rock ).
- In this reducing environment, the silicon in the clay reacts with wustite to form fayalite and, at around, the fayalite will become a liquid.
- In this reducing environment, the silicon in the clay reacts with wustite to form fayalite and, at around, the fayalite will become a liquid.
- Through the shape of fayalite, cooling rates of the slag can be roughly estimated ( Donaldson 1976, cited in Etller et al . 2009 ).
- In the olivine structure, the main olivine series of ( Mg, Fe ) 2 SiO 4 consist of magnesium-rich forsterite and iron-rich fayalite.
- The temperature at which the liquidous phases crystallize in a sequence : mullite + tridymite, followed by sekaninaite and finally fayalite + clinoferrosilite ( Grapes, 2010 ).
- Because iron ( II ) ions were oxidized in the Stromboli magma, little iron ( II ) was available to form Fe-rich olivine ( fayalite ).
