Abstract: The specific conductivity of the molten KF—K₂TaF₇ system was measured within the temperature range from 1155 K to 1255 K using a two-molybdenum electrode cell. It was found that the addition of up to 10 mass % K₂TaF₇ caused a decrease of the system specific conductivity.

Keywords: electrical conductivity - melt - inorganic salts - temperature dependence
