Abstract The use of molten-salt–based energy production and storage systems requires high-temperature corrosion- creep-resistant structural materials. This study investigated the microstructure evolution corrosion characteristics Hastelloy N under working stress in a molten salt environment. Selective diffusion Cr at grain boundaries (GBs) degraded properties GBs, making them preferred location...

In molten fluoride salt systems, the chemistry and transport of hydrogen are coupled to its valence state, which controls balance tritium leakage corrosion.

Immobilization of TiO2 on silica gel has been proposed to enable easy separation of the catalyst in aqueous systems after photocatalytic reaction. Our simple synthesizing method reduces production cost, and the photocatalyst could find economical application in wastewater treatment. Silica-supported TiO2 composites were prepared by molten salt method at 500, 600 and 700 °C for 60 min. The obtai...
