TL;DR: A comprehensive review of the physico-chemical properties of room-temperature molten salts composed of binary solutions of metal halides with either alkylpyridinium halides or di-alkylimidazolium halide is given in this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, the electrochemical synthesis of refractory borides from molten salt has been discussed, when the two components of the boride phase are jointly deposited on the cathode.

TL;DR: In this article, the liquid phase organic reactions induced by a gaseous plasma, which was generated in a localized zone between an electrolytic solution and an anode by means of contact glow discharge electrolysis (CGDE), were investigated.

TL;DR: In this article, a general description of the oxoacidity concept and potential-acidity diagrams are presented to understand the main features of this electrochemical device, dedicated to energy and heat generation.

TL;DR: In this paper, the electrochemical behavior of niobium in a 52:48 mole ratio AlCl3:NaCl molten salt electrolyte was examined by linear sweep voltammetry, chronoamperometry and chronopotentiometry at 190 °C.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review thermodynamic and dynamical properties of the two-body Yukawa system, focusing on the recent development of molecular dynamics simulation methods for the system.

TL;DR: In this paper, different definitions of activity coefficients in aqueous electrolyte solutions are compared with each other and the consequences of the use of a mole fraction in the definitions of the activity coefficients and excess functions are brought into focus.

TL;DR: The mechanism of the electroreduction of K 2 TiF 6 and KBF 4 in fused KCl-NCl-NaCl -NaF was determined from transient electrochemical techniques at temperatures ranging from 650 to 800°C.

TL;DR: In this paper, the total structure factors from neutron diffraction and X-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements on molten lithium carbonate have been analyzed by the reverse Monte Carlo (RMC) modeling technique to generate a three-dimensional structural model of the melt.

TL;DR: In this paper, the electrode processes in the FLINAK-K2TaF7-KBF4 melt were studied by the method of linear voltammetry with a silver working electrode at the temperature of 700-750 ° C.

TL;DR: In this paper, a self-consistent model for the properties of the alkali fluids is presented, which consists of Monte Carlo simulations, in a classical lattice gas, to obtain atomic configurations which appear with a thermal probability e F / k B T, where the configurational free energy F is determined by that of a quantum mechanical electronic system with one valence electron per atom.

TL;DR: In this article, a new vapour pressure apparatus is presented, which automatically records the water-activity of a salt-water mixture over the concentration range from a dilute solution to the fused salt during one experiment.

TL;DR: In this article, two functions of the form T*(Θ−1/2 + A + BΘ) are proposed to model the extra heat capacity beyond what can be represented in a polynomial model in the regions 50 K below and 30 K above a lambda point.

TL;DR: In this paper, the correlations between structural holes in the fluid phase of the one-component classical plasma near its freezing point at coupling strength Γ = 179 are studied by a statistical method using the Ornstein-Zernike relations for a partly quenched disordered system in combination with the hypernetted chain closure.
