Interparticle interactions in the high-temperature disperse system Li2CO3–Na2CO3–K2CO3-melt–MgO-nanopowder were studied using Raman spectroscopy to provide the in situ information required to optimize the carbonate-fuel-cell operating environment. Addition of MgO nanopowder to the carbonate melt changed the system vibrational spectrum because of solvation of solid particles by salt-melt ions.
