Rheological and physical properties testing was conducted on actual AZ-102 and C-104 melter feed samples prior to the addition of glass formers and secondary waste products. Analyses were repeated on the C-104 samples following the addition of simulated Sr/TRU secondary waste. Analyses were repeated again following addition of glass formers to both AZ-102 and C-104 samples. Samples from both feeds were tested at the target solids concentrations of 5, 15, and 25 wt%. This data on actual waste is required to validate and qualify results obtained with simulants.
