Thorizon and TNO launch molten salt reactor materials programme

Original: Thorizon and TNO have launched a materials and corrosion programme to generate the experimental data and predictive mode

Dutch nuclear startup Thorizon and research organisation TNO have launched a materials and corrosion programme to generate the experimental data and predictive models needed to qualify materials for molten salt reactors. The work targets one of the key technical hurdles for molten salt technology, which operates at high temperatures and corrosive conditions. Nuclear energy observers are following the collaboration as part of broader momentum in advanced reactor development in Europe.

Why now: Molten salt reactor development is advancing in Europe and qualifying materials is a critical step toward commercial deployment.
