Title: Density of molten sodium aluminosilicates

Journal Article · · J. Am. Ceram. Soc.; (United States)

In order to address controversial discrepancies among earlier measurements, the densities of eight sodium aluminosilicate melts were measured at 1100/sup 0/ to 1550/sup 0/C. The double-bob Archimedean method was used; it is the most accurate available technique and one not used in previous density measurements in this system. The results of a regression of molar volume with temperature and composition in terms of oxides are presented. The variation of molar volume with composition is linear within the range of the data. The standard error of the fit is <0.2%.
