Title: Measurement of Simulated Waste Glass Viscosity

Book ·
OSTI ID:799425

A new high-temperature glass viscometer instrument was established and evaluated using a simulated waste glass in a comparative test with eight other laboratories and viscometers. The unit has distinct advantages in physical size, the amount of glass required for testing, and the simplicity of operation. These advantages can be important for work with radioactive materials. Results from the comparison indicate excellent accuracy and repeatability.
