On commercially available lead crystal glass tumblers (24%PbO), the interaction between their bulk and grain forms and aqueous solutions of various concentrations of acetic acid at different temperatures (22 to 95 deg C), and for different times (30min to 300d) was studied. The extent of interaction was evaluated by determining the concentrations of K+, Na+, Pb2+ and Si4+ ions extracted by acetic acid, the change in the pH value of aqueous acetic acid solutions and the weight loss of glass grains.
