2O systems at 313.15 K were determined by the isothermal dissolution equilibrium method.The equilibrium solid phases were determined by X-ray spectroscopy,and the phase diagrams of the ternary systems were drawn.There is no double salt or solid solution formed,and the three systems belong to a simple eutectic system.The phase diagrams of the ternary systems have one invariant point and two univariant curves at the boundary of two crystallization fields.The equilibrium solid phase of Na

3-H
2O is composited of sodium sulfate(Na
2SO
4) and sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate (Na
2S

3·5H
2O),respectively.Sodium thiosulfate pentahydrate and sodium rhodanate (NaSCN) are the components of the solid phase of Na

2O
3-NaSCN-H
2O,and the solid phase of Na
2SO
4-NaSCN-H
2O consists of sodium sulfate and sodium rhodanate.The experimental results suggest that Na
2S
2O
3 and NaSCN show an obvious decrease of the solubility of Na
