Ions in molten salts can 'break the flow'
In a brand-new write-up published in the scientific journal Communications Chemistry, a research group at Uppsala University program, utilizing computer system simulations, that ions do not constantly behave as anticipated. In their study on molten salts, they had the ability to see that, sometimes, the ions in the salt combination they were researching influence each other so much that they might even relocate the "incorrect" instructions-- that is, in the direction of an electrode with the exact same charge.
