Abstract
Based on functional relationships established for binary mixes of container media, a mathematical model is proposed for ternary component mixtures. Shrinkage values are generated for three-component mixtures based on mathematical equations. Empirically observed shrinkage values for corresponding three-component mixtures are determined and used as the basis for assessing the reliability of the proposed mathematical model for characterizing shrinkage in mixtures of container media. . Regression equations were developed and compared for both theoretical and empirical results.

SHRINKAGE IN TERNARY MIXES OF CONTAINER MEDIA
Based on functional relationships established for binary mixes of container media, a mathematical model is proposed for ternary component mixtures. Shrinkage values are generated for three-component mixtures based on mathematical equations. Empirically observed shrinkage values for corresponding three-component mixtures are determined and used as the basis for assessing the reliability of the proposed mathematical model for characterizing shrinkage in mixtures of container media. .
