The use of molten salt-based nanofluids as heat transfer fluids or thermal energy storage materials to increase the efficiency of Concentrated Solar Power plants has gained attention due to the use of the renewable energies against Global Warming. One of the issues of interest is the colloidal stability of the nanoparticles dispersed in ionic media like molten salts. (312 characters)
