The Complex Structure of Molten NaCl-CrCl3 Salt: Cr-Cl Octahedra Network and Intermediate-Range Order [PDF]
, 2020 The resurgence of the Molten-Salt Nuclear Reactors (MSR) creates interesting problems in molten-salt chemistry. As MSRs operate, the composition and physical properties of salts change because of fission and corrosion. Since Cr is the principal corrosion

Characterisation of molten salts for their application to Molten Salt Reactors
PAM Review Energy Science & Technology, 2019 Molten Salt Reactors (MSRs) are one of the six Gen (IV) reactor designs chosen by the Generation IV International Forum for further development. A key area of concern for MSRs is the selection of molten salt composition. Parameters such as heat capacity, thermal conductivity, and viscosity are essential to consider when selecting a salt mixture for use

Thermal Properties of Li2BeF4 near Melting Point
Thermo, 2022 The LiF–BeF2 system is used as a heat transfer medium in molten salt reactors (MSRs). The thermal diffusivity of Li2BeF4 was studied using the laser flash analysis (LFA) method in solid and transition states.

Modelling of Tritium Breeding in Molten Salt Reactors [PDF]
, 2023 Nuclear fusion is considered a clean energy source: it emits no CO2 and leaves little radioactive waste. It is important to start paving the path toward nuclear fusion whilst simultaneously moving away from fossil fuels and carbon emissions.
