熔鹽式反應器（Molten Salt Reactor, MSR）是第四代反應器設計中的一款，特點是熱傳媒介與燃料皆是高熱傳的液態氟化鹽。相對於現今輕水式反應器，熔鹽式反應器的設計簡化使得安全性提高且降低成本，且可轉化核燃料的錒系元素以及產氫功能。

鎳基合金的結構材料在熔鹽環境下所表現的腐蝕行為成為開發MSR中必須研究的題目，腐蝕原因主要有本質腐蝕、不純物腐蝕、溫度梯度腐蝕、加凡尼腐蝕。其中不純物腐蝕，乃因非純化融鹽中含有水份，會在高溫與融鹽作用形成HF而腐蝕金屬元素，特別是合金成分中的Cr，因而Cr量低的材料方適合為MSR的結構材料。目前認為最合適的材料為Hastelloy N。本實驗以Hastelloy N、Haynes 242、Haynes 262、Hastelloy B3、TZM試片置於鎳製高溫釜內，實驗溫度測定於600℃，時間分為100、300、600、1000小時，以水分占3 wt%的FLiNaK熔鹽透過腐蝕前後試片的單位面積質量改變量與微結構分析探討材料的腐蝕特性。實驗結果以低Cr的Hastelloy B3、Hastelloy N最抗腐蝕，但腐蝕表現不同，前者出現均勻腐蝕，後者為粒間腐蝕。高Mo量的鎳基合金會趨向均勻腐蝕，並加大腐蝕損失。
