An investigation was conducted of certain factors which influence the reproducibility of autoclave chemical durability tests. These factors include the method of preparation and the purity of the water used, the rinsing procedure, the volume of solution used, and variations in the test temperature and in the duration of the different periods of the heat cycle. The effect of the internal area of the container on the test results was determined, and suggestions are presented for increasing the reliability of the tests.
