The Structure of Molten Salts

  • Chapter
Molten Salt Chemistry

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 202))

Abstract

A review of the structural properties of molten salts is presented, with special emphasis on the results of neutron scattering combined with the technique of isotopic substitution. The use of alternative structural methods based on EXAFS, anomalous scattering or isomorphic substitution is also discussed.
