Phase transitions in NaAlSiO4 were examined at 3.5-27GPa and 950-1600°C using a multianvil-type and a Bridgman anvil-type high-pressure apparatus. The results show that NaAlSiO4 nepheline first dissociates into an assemblage of NaAlSi2O6 jadeite and β-NaAlO2 with distorted zincite structure at about 4GPa. At about 7GPa, this assemblage changes to jadeite plus α-NaAlO2 with distorted rocksalt structure. Jadeite and α-NaAlO2 react to form an NaAlSiO4 phase with calcium ferrite structure at 18-20GPa, and this boundary has a negative slope. Enthalpies of nepheline and calcium ferrite-type NaAlSiO4, jadeite, and α- and β-NaAlO2 were measured by high temperature oxide melt solution calorimetry. The enthalpy for transition of NaAlSiO4 nepheline to jadeite plus β-NaAlO2 was /6.2+/-4.4kJ/mol and that for the β-α-transition in NaAlO2 was /23.6+/-2.4kJ/mol at 298K. The enthalpy of formation of NaAlSiO4 calcium ferrite from jadeite plus α-NaAlO2 was /79.6+/-6.9kJ/mol at 298K. The calculated boundaries of these transitions from the measured enthalpy data are generally consistent with those by experimental determination, considering the errors of the measured enthalpies and thermophysical properties of the relevant phases and the uncertainty of pressure in the high-pressure experiments. The calculated boundary for dissociation of jadeite to calcium ferrite plus stishovite has a positive slope. The present calculation of the transition boundaries involving NaAlSiO4 calcium ferrite may suggest that configurational entropy of calcium ferrite possibly due to Al-Si disorder could contribute to the slopes of the boundaries.
