| Research Abstract |
We have developed the high-pressure X-ray absorption technique to measure density of silicate melts at high-pressure using synchrotron X-ray and a multi-anvil apparatus, in order to determine partial molar volume of siderophile oxide liquid at high pressure. Density (ρ) is evaluated from X-ray absorption profile of a sample using the equation of I=I_0 exp(-ρμt), where land are intensities of transmitted and incident X-rays, respectively, μ is mass absorption coefficient of sample, and t is sample thickness. In this study, we used a single crystalline diamond cylinder as a sample capsule, because its low X-ray absorption, hardness, and inertness with silicate melts. Diamond capsule makes the densiy measurement of silciate metls under pressure possible.
High-pressure X-ray absorption experiments were conducted by using a DIA-type cubic anvil apparatus and a highly brilliant monochromatic X-ray at BL22XU of SPring-8,Japan. We used glasses with the compositions both of the MORB and of the Fe-bearing sodium disilicate for starting materials. Although densities of glasses, crystalline solids, and melts were determined up to 5 GPa and 1873 K, we have not determined the partial molar volume of liquid. This method can, however, yield a series of density data at high pressures and temperatures within an error of 1% enough to evaluate the partial molar volume of silicate liquid.
