KEY WORDS:

electrical conductivity, melts, low-melted mixtures, zirconium tetrachloride, sodium and potassium chlorides.

ABSTRACT:

For the first time the electrical conductivity of the NaCl-KCl (8:29 molar)-ZrCl₄ molten mixtures depending on the ZrCl₄ concentration (54.3-75.2 mol. %) and temperature (in the range from 300 to 540 °C) was measured in the individually designed cells.
