Viscosity of glasses containing simulated Savannah River Plant waste

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

The viscosity of glass melts containing four simulated sludge types and two frit candidates (Frits 18 and 21) was measured over the temperature range 750 to 1200/sup 0/C. The viscosity of melts made with either frit was reduced by the addition of high iron sludge, unchanged by average sludge, and increased by composite and high aluminum sludge. High aluminium sludge greatly increased the viscosity. Frit 21 (containing 4 wt % Li/sub 2/O substituted for 4 wt % Na/sub 2/O in Frit 18) was clearly better than Frit 18 in terms of its low viscosity. However, further reductions in viscosity are … continued below

Frit 21 (containing 4 wt % Li/sub 2/O substituted for 4 wt % Na/sub 2/O in Frit 18) was clearly better than Frit 18 in terms of its low viscosity. However, further reductions in viscosity are desirable, especially for glasses containing high aluminum sludge. Changing any frit component by 1 wt % did not significantly affect the viscosity of the glasses. Therefore, variability of 1 wt % in any frit component can be tolerated.
