Corrosion in Molten Salts Used for Solar Thermal Storage Applications

摘要

Some of the broad outlines of corrosion behavior are discussed. The compatibility of materials with the molten nitrate--nitrite class of salts selected for solar thermal storage applications is discussed at some length. A brief summary is given of recommendations for areas of future work on these salts to increase the reliability of materials behavior in solar systems. (ERA citation 04:038507)
