Liquid alloy - Ekitai Gokin

...The phenomenon in which a water-insoluble liquid or solid dissolves in a micellar solution of a surfactant to produce a stable solution is called solubilization, and such a solution is called a solubilized solution. In addition, there are low-melting-point alloys and liquid alloys that are solid at room temperature but become liquid or in solution when melted at high temperatures. Molten salts are mixed systems in which electrolytes are heated to melt them and turn them into a liquid state, and they exhibit phenomena such as ionic conduction and electrolysis, and this system can also be considered a type of electrolyte solution. ...

*Some of the terminology that refers to "liquid alloy" is listed below.

…水に不溶性の液体や固体が界面活性剤のミセル溶液中に溶け安定な溶液を生ずる現象を可溶化solubilizationまたは溶解化といい，このような溶液を可溶化溶液solubilized solutionという。　なお，低融点の合金や常温においては固体であるが高温で融解した状態では液体または溶液となるものに溶融塩と液体合金がある。溶融塩(融解塩)fused saltは電解質を加熱して融解し，液体状態にした混合系で，イオン伝導，電気分解などの現象を示し，この系も一種の電解質溶液とみなすことができよう。…
