Abstract
The gathering of thermodynamic data for crystalline and liquid silicates goes on apace. Yet research into the formulation of activity-composition (a-X) relations does not seem to have the same impetus. This is unfortunate because smoothing and interpolation/extrapolation of thermodynamic data can only be accomplished satisfactorily using thermodynamics.
