High temperature corrosion behavior on molten nitrate salt-based nanofluids for CSP plants

Additionally, hematite (Fe2O3) and magnetite (Fe3O4) were obtained as unprotective corrosion products throughout the test carried out with or without nanoparticles. In addition, the presence of impurities on the salts generated some stable compounds, as magnesium ferrite (MgFe2O4).
