The system CaO–Al2O3–SiO2 (CAS) is explored in the pressure–temperature (P, T) range 0–2 GPa and 1000– 3000 K with the aim of defining the complex topology of the liquidus surface at various isobaric conditions and assessing the role of P on the stability fields and melting behavior of the various solids nucleating in the system. Calculations are carried out by coupling a generalized polymeric approach that reduces the system to two interacting sub‐lattices (Network Formers and Network Modifiers; NF, NM) with an improved and generalized convex-hull procedure that conforms mathematically the equipotential loci at the various T, P conditions. The thermodynamic model operates through a Toop's asymmetric deconvolution (interactions within the NM sub‐ lattice unaffected by NF; interactions within the NF sub‐lattice affected by NM) of the bulk Gibbs free energy of mixing. Mixing energies (chemical and strain) are calculated with a polymeric model where the individual properties of the oxides composing the NF and NM matrixes are determined by their Lux–Flood acid–base prop- erties and weighted on the basis of their electrical equivalent fractions.
