TLDR
The heat capacities of NaNO3 and KNO3 were determined from 350 to 800 K by differential scanning calorimetry Solid-solid transitions and melting were observed at 550 and 583 K for Na NO3 and 406 and 612 K for K NO3, respectively as discussed by the authors.

Specific heat capacity of molten salt-based alumina nanofluid

TL;DR: It is shown that the SHC of the molten salt-based alumina nanofluid decreases with reducing particle size and increasing particle concentration, resulting from an augmentation of the nanolayer effect as particle size reduces.
