The T-7H-6f Work Group performed a round-robin series of deposit weight density tests on boiler tube samples. These tests utilized several techniques including chemical dissolution, mechanical scraping and glass bead blasting There were significant differences between the results obtained from the different methods and from sample to sample when using the same method.
