Molten salt chemistry is important for molten salt applications in molten salt reactors, pyrochemical separation as well as energy storage. The chemistry includes the fundamental properties of the salt, salt purification, material separation and impurity removal, and material corrosion and corrosion control. The panel will cover all those topics. Considering that both molten chloride and fluoride salts have significant applications in the nuclear field, the panel will cover both types of salt. We will invite international experts from universities and national laboratories (domestic and international) to be on the panel to present their understanding and recent progress in molten salt chemistry.
