Molten salt is salt which is solid at standard temperature and pressure but liquified due to elevated temperature. A salt that is liquid even at standard temperature and pressure is usually called a room-temperature ionic liquid , and molten salts are technically a class of ionic liquids.
The denatured molten-salt reactor (DMSR) was an Oak Ridge theoretical design that was never built. Engel et al. 1980 said the project "examined the conceptual feasibility of a molten-salt power reactor fueled with denatured uranium-235 (i.e. with low-enriched uranium) and operated with a minimum of chemical processing."
Molten salts can be employed as a thermal energy storage method to retain thermal energy. Presently, this is a commercially used technology to store the heat collected by concentrated solar power (e.g., from a solar tower or solar trough ).
Above their melting point, salts melt and become molten salts (although some salts such as aluminium chloride and iron(III) chloride show molecule-like structures in the liquid phase). [63] Inorganic compounds with simple ions typically have small ions, and thus have high melting points, so are solids at room temperature.

Molten-salt batteries are a class of battery that uses molten salts as an electrolyte and offers both a high energy density and a high power density. Traditional non-rechargeable thermal batteries can be stored in their solid state at room temperature for long periods of time before being activated by heating.
Simply being certified kosher doesn't mean a product is free of iodine, or that what's inside is what's commonly thought of as coarse kosher-style salt. Many different types of salt available in ...
Musk believes some $1 billion per week is being spent on fraudulent Treasury payments, prompting Trump to ask if this could help national debt.
