Abstract
These mixtures were designed such that the melting point of the molten nitrates would be reduced, allowing for the mixtures' direct use as storage materials in parabolic-trough solar power plants, therefore replacing the synthetic oil currently used as a heat transfer fluid (HTF) and heat exchanger oil. The use of these mixtures is intended to reduce the economic costs and improve the thermal storage of current solar technology.
