Viscosity of molten alkali chlorides

Abstract: Precision determinations of the viscosities of the molten alkali chlorides are reported. The viscosities are described by Arrhenius equations with a standard deviation of ±0.10% or less. The equations for the viscosity In mPa s are t?(LICI) = 0.10888 exp(2295.5/ ), r?(NaCI) = 0.08931 exp(2841/T), t?(KCI) = 0.06168• exp(3012.4/T), ij(RbCI) = 0.06776 exp(2984.7/7), and t?(CsCI) = 0.07138 exp(2842.8/ 7). The accuracy Is estimated to be ±0.3% at the 68% confidence level. We have Identified and eliminated bubble fo… Show more

“…The extrapolated values for LiCI in the work above are in agreement with the recommended data base for LiCl[1]; recent work by Brockner, Torklep and Oye shows that the viscosities for LiCI cited in[I] are uniformly too high (-4%)[235].…”

“…This can be derived from the apparent “activation energies”, [ t = E a ( Λ )/ E a ( η )], which have long been known to be less for the (molar) conductivity than for the viscosity 37. For example, using literature data38, 39 for NaCl in the range 1080–1290 K, one obtains t =0.47, which is quite low. Other alkali halides have higher values, up to about 1 for CsI.…”

“…As mentioned above, the solubility data of Ti in the three salts are not known, and so only effects from other two factors are considered here. Among the three molten salts, NaCl has the highest viscosity 19, 20 and wets graphite poorly 21 ; therefore, the transport of Ti to the surface of graphite will be hindered considerably. Although LiCl has the lowest viscosity 19,20 it does not wet graphite, 21 and consequently the delivery of Ti to the reaction sites on the graphite surface becomes difficult.…”

“…Among the three molten salts, NaCl has the highest viscosity 19, 20 and wets graphite poorly 21 ; therefore, the transport of Ti to the surface of graphite will be hindered considerably. Although LiCl has the lowest viscosity 19,20 it does not wet graphite, 21 and consequently the delivery of Ti to the reaction sites on the graphite surface becomes difficult. Differently from these two molten salts, KCl wets graphite well 21 and has a low viscosity, 19,20 which facilitates the diffusion of Ti species in it and thus the rapid TiC coating formation.…”
