An extensive characterization of specimens of the glass produced during Run 4 (ZVDP-4) of the nonradioactive phase of the Three Mile Island (TMI) Zeolite Vitrification Demonstration Program was conducted by the Materials characterization Center (MCC) at Pacific Northwest Laboratory (PNL). The characteristics of the ZVDP-4 glass were compared with those of MCC's borosilicate reference glass, MCC 76-68. Tests included analyses of composition, density and phases present, the MCC-1P Static Leach Test Method, measurements of tensile strength and impact behavior, and evaluation of high-temperature vaporization.
