This report discusses the results of the examination of three rate laws for glass dissolution. These three are: SLDF, LDF/LDF and ZO/LDF. All three models can fit the results of static powder leach tests reasonably well. The existence of a fundamental relationship between the thermodynamics and the kinetics of glass dissolution/leaching has been demonstrated for the three rate models.
