Explore our foundational industrial chemicals engineered under rigorous quality management controls for global distribution.
Molten salts, primarily nitrate-nitrite eutectic mixtures, are the leading heat transfer fluids (HTFs) and thermal energy storage (TES) media for high-temperature applications. However, at temperatures ranging from 290°C to 600°C, the electrochemical activity of these salts increases dramatically, giving rise to serious corrosion issues in containment alloys, stainless steel piping, and storage tanks.
Molten salt corrosion is predominantly driven by two chemical pathways: oxidation-reduction loops and impurity-catalyzed degradation. Under high temperatures, nitrate ions partially decompose to form nitrites and oxygen. This reaction dynamic equilibrium determines the oxidising potential of the salt environment. High-valence metallic ions in the container walls dissolve into the molten salt, depleting protective oxide films like chromium oxide (Cr₂O₃) and leading to intergranular cracking.
Our key metrics represent over a decade of chemical refinement, optimization, and global supply chain mastery.
Leveraging high-purity inorganic chemical lines to provide reliable system-level performance.
How high-grade thermal salts act as high-efficiency media across primary modern sectors.
Providing the medium for solar salt systems in concentrated solar power (CSP) generation, absorbing solar energy during the day and driving steam turbines at night.
Supplying high-purity potassium nitrate baths for ion exchange, replacing smaller sodium ions in glass surfaces with larger potassium ions to increase fracture resistance.
Delivering high-capacity thermal media for coal conversion processes and chemical processing plants requiring reliable temperature regulation above 350°C.
Providing essential water-soluble nitrogen and potassium inputs designed to maximize crop yield, absorption efficiency, and soil nutrient retention rates.
Shanxi Province, China, holds a profound geopolitical and geographical advantage in inorganic salt manufacturing. By combining vast local raw material deposits of nitrate salts with advanced chemical manufacturing infrastructure, Shanxi Vojin New Materials has optimized production processes to output consistent, high-purity solar salts with minimal metallic impurities.
To survive in harsh molten salt environments, global purchasers require salts that contain minimal chlorides (less than 100 ppm, and in premium lines, less than 10 ppm). Shanxi Vojin's factory incorporates multi-stage crystallization systems and automated chemical analysis loops. This control maintains structural passive layers on storage tanks and heat exchangers, saving downstream operators millions in maintenance costs.
Additionally, our production footprint scale enables massive wholesale cost advantages, allowing us to supply large-scale greenfield projects in Spain, North America, the Middle East, and North Africa (MENA) regions with consistent pricing stability.
