Abstract: Corrosion of pure nickel (Nickel 201) in molten mixture LiF-NaF-ZrF₄ was investigated at the temperature of 680 °C by measurement of polarization resistance. It seems that after 700 hours the melt was saturated with corrosion products and corrosion rate decreased rapidly.

Keywords: polarization resistance, corrosion in molten salts, materials for nuclear energy
