Berreth, J R; Gombert, D II; Cole, H S

High-level radioactive calcined defense waste (approx. 50 wt % CaF/sub 2/) is vitrified using a frit containing 66% SiO/sub 2/, 24% Na/sub 2/O, 8% B/sub 2/O/sub 3/, and 2% CuO. Effects of Na, B, Li, Zn, Cu, and P on viscosity and acid leach resistance were measured. The glass contains up to 9% fluoride. Glass properties were measured.
