Abstract

We present the results of studies of liquid samples (suspensions of pyrex glass) and solid-state samples (turbid glasses). We consider the dependences of the intensity of scattered radiation on the mass concentration of the suspensions, the thickness of the glass, and the transmission coefficient; the characteristic scattering, curves, the stability of the characteristics, etc. We demonstrate the prospects for using the indicated samples for calibrating and testing turbidimeters and nephelometers.
