Popis: We applied a new type of flow-through test method using micro-reactor consisting of a simple test apparatus with compact size to measurement of the dissolution rate of a Japanese type of simulated waste glass (P0798 glass). In this test method, a solution flows through a micro-channel (20 mm length, 2 mm width, 0.16 mm depth) in contact with a face of coupon shaped glass specimen, and the output solution is retrieved at certain intervals to be analyzed for determination of the glass dissolution rate. By using this test method the initial dissolution rate of glass matrix or forward dissolution rate was measured as a function of pH (3 to 11) and temperature (25°C to 90°C). The present test results indicated that the initial dissolution rate has ‘V-shaped’ pH dependence, and the effect of pH on the dissolution rate decreases with increase in temperature similar to the results measured by using the Single-pass flow-through (SPFT) method. The present test results also indicated that the dissolution of B is controlled by diffusion process and that of Si is controlled by surface reaction process.
