Interfacial tensions between the LiF-KF binary melt and liquid bismuth and between the LiF-BeF/sub 2/ binary melt and liquid bismuth were measured over a wide range of salt compositions by a modified maximum bubble pressure method. The experimental uncertainties were within 5%. Their interfacial tension isotherms show apparent negative deviation from the linear dependence on salt composition. It was found that the LiF-KF binary melt showed nearly ideal solution behavior in the interfacial tension as well as in the surface tension.
