Abstract

An apparatus is described for the measurement of changes in the density of glass by the flotation method. Water is used as the flotation liquid and the difference between its density and that of glass is compensated by means of a float. A mathematical discussion of the sensitivity and accuracy of the method is given, and a description of the experimental technique by which changes in the density of glass specimens may be measured accurately to ±0.00002 g./cm.3.
