Abstract: The phase diagram of ternary system NdCl3-BaCl2-NaCl was investigated by means of DTAand X-ray diffraction analysis. It was found that there are 5 surfaces corresponding to the primary crystallization of NdCl3,α-BaCl2,β-BaCl2, NaCl and Ba3NdCl9 respectively, and 6 univariant lines related to the secondary crystallization in this system. The temperature of the ternary eutectic, composed of 74.0wt%NdCl3, 24.4wt%NaCl, 1.6wt% BaCl2, was determined to be 430℃. The temperature of the ternary peritectic, composed of 57.0wt. %NdCl3, 23.9wt% NaCl,19.1wt%BaCl2, was observed to be 508℃. Acompound, formed in the solid state, is found, and decomposed occurs at 420℃.
