The solubilities and relevant physicochemical properties including density and pH values of the aqueous quaternary system (MgCl2 + MgSO4 + MgB6O10 + H2O) at 323.15 K were determined for the first time with the method of isothermal dissolution. According to the experimental results, the dry-salt-phase diagram, water-phase diagram, and physicochemical properties versus composition diagrams were plotted. It was found that there are three three-salt cosaturated invariant points, seven univariant solubility isotherm curves, and five stable crystallization fields corresponding to bischofite (MgCl2路6H2O, Bis), kieserite (MgSO4路H2O, Kie), tetrahydrite (MgSO4路4H2O, Tet), hexahydrite (MgSO4路6H2O, Hex), and mcallisterite (Mg(B6O7)(OH)6路4.5H2O, Mca). Neither solid solution nor double salts were found. On the basis of the extended Harvie鈥揥eare (HW) model and its temperature-dependent equation, single-salt parameters 尾(0), 尾(1), 尾(2), and C for MgCl2, MgSO4, and Mg(B6O7)(OH)6, mixed ion-interaction parameters 胃C1,SO4, 胃C1,B6O7聽(OH)6, 胃SO4,B6O7(OH)6, 唯Mg,Cl,SO4, 唯Mg,Cl,B6O7(OH)6, and 唯Mg,SO4,B6O7(OH)6, and the Debye鈥揌眉ckel parameter A at 323.15 K were obtained. In addition, the average equilibrium constants of stable equilibrium solids at 323.15 K were obtained with the method of the activity product constant. The prediction of solubilities of the quaternary system is then demonstrated. A comparison between the calculated and the experimental results shows that the predicted solubilities agree well with experimental data.
