Why doesn’t the heat of fusion vaporize the metal? Does the plasma touching the metal stop the reaction?

- sofixa 5y ago[i have slightly more than zero knowledge on the matter, what i say might be completely wrong] There are fast nuclear reactors which use lead-bismuth for the coolant ( the Soviet Alfa class submarine used them to mixed success, but that was in the 80s), so maybe there are alloys with fitting temperature characteristics?
