The transpiration method was used to measure the density of molten borax vapours at 900 to 1150C in a nitrogen atmosphere and in nitrogen-water vapour mixtures. The results suggest a relatively small effect of water vapour on the density of borate vapours and indicate quasi-congruent vaporisation resulting from reaction of the melt with water vapour.
