Molten Salt Power Plants,Bingsheng Chemical

Molten salt grade potassium nitrate is colorless transparent square or rhombic crystal or white powder. It is easily soluble in water, liquid ammonia and glycerol, but insoluble in absolute ethanol and ether. It is not easy to deliquesce in the air and is a strong oxidant.

  • Product name Molten Salt Grade Potassium Nitrate
  • Molecular formula KNO3
  • Molecular weight 101.1
  • CAS NO. 7757-79-1
  • HS CODE 28342190

INTRODUCTION

It is an important chemical substance with a wide range of applications. It is a highly efficient heat transfer heat storage medium, composed of cations and anions in an ionic melt, which is solid at standard temperature and atmospheric pressure, and transforms into liquid phase after the temperature rises, forming a high-temperature heat flow heat transfer heat storage. This kind of melt has the advantages of good heat transfer performance, low working pressure, wide range of liquid temperature, high operating temperature, low cost, safety and reliability, etc. Therefore, it is widely used in nuclear power, solar thermal power generation, high-temperature process industry and other fields.
In addition, molten salt grade potassium nitrate is an important raw material and is widely used in agriculture, gunpowder, explosives, rocket propellants, glass, ceramics and glaze manufacturing industries as well as pharmaceutical, chemical and metallurgical industries. In agriculture, potassium nitrate is an important source of nitrogen and potash fertilisers, which can improve the yield and quality of crops. In the gunpowder, explosives and rocket propellant manufacturing industries, molten salt grade potassium nitrate is widely used due to its high oxidising and combustion properties. In the glass, ceramic and glaze manufacturing industries, potassium nitrate improves the transparency and strength of products. 
In the field of solar thermal power generation, molten salt-grade potassium nitrate plays an extremely important role as a key component of molten salt for thermal storage. This technology uses molten salt to store heat energy from sunlight during the day and then releases it on cloudy, sunless days and nights for continuous power generation. This type of power generation is not only environmentally friendly, but also more stable than photovoltaic power generation, and can be directly connected to the Internet for power supply, which has a broad development prospect.
