Molten salts and liquid metals are compatible phases, i.e. they can co-exist at high temperatures. Traditionally, molten salts (fluxes) are used to keep the surface of liquid aluminium clean from oxidation. In this paper more advanced possibilities to create advanced materials will be presented, using molten salts and controlling interfacial phenomena in the system. This will include the production of Al-alloys, Al-matrix micro-nano-composites and Al-micro-nano powder (emulsion). Additionally, the separation of Al-matrix composites into its original phases using a molten salt flux will be presented.
