Molten salt penetrates various metal alloys in different patterns; oxide growth can form similar 1D morphology. From top left, clockwise: stainless steel corroded in salt, iron-nickel-chromium ...

Initially developed in the 1950s, molten salt reactors have benefits in higher efficiencies and lower waste generation. Some designs do not require solid fuel, which eliminates the need for ...

Colloidal solutions of gallium arsenide quantum dots of the type used in lasers, TVs, solar cells, medical devices, and other electronics glow under UV light. These were grown using a ...

So too for molten salt reactors (MSRs), which saw Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) create a number of prototypes, starting in 1954 when the Aircraft Reactor Experiment (ARE) reached first ...

Dutch technology companies Demcon, Thorizon and VDL Group have signed a project agreement to demonstrate and validate the ...

This award is given to individuals in light of their significant contribution to the understanding and development of Molten Salts / Ionic Liquids Science and Technology. The winners of the award are ...

The Molten Salts and Ionic Liquids Discussion Group (MSILDG) is one of the RSC's many Interest Groups. The Interest Groups are member driven groups which exist to benefit RSC members, and the wider ...
