Purpose: Purpose of this paper is to report on tine development of a new density measurement cell. Design/methodology/approach: Measurement cell based on Archimedean principle and consisting of induction furnace and a high/precision balance was applied for measurement of tin, silver and copper density. Findings: It was found that new cell is suitable for high temperature measurement of liquid metals density at temperatures from 700 to 1520°C. Measurement results are in a good agreement with the literature values. Density deviates by 0.5-1% depending on the metal. Research limitations/implications: Accuracy of tines density measurement decreases ait temperatures below 700°C due to oxidation of the melt surface. More accurate data on thermal expansion coefficient for sinker material is required. Practical implications: Experiments showed applicability of the new measurement cell. Archimedean principle is among the most sensitive density measurement techniques. New cell will be further used for measurement of iron-based alloys. Problems of measurements are discussed. Originality/value: Paper describes application of the known density measurement technique. The paper is of interest for the material scientists working with high-temperature thermophysical properties measurements and users of thermophysical properties data.
