In order to model the flow behavior of molten silicate suspensions such as magmas and slags, the rheological behavior must be known as a function of the concentration of suspended crystals, melt composition, and external conditions. We have determined the viscosity and crystallization sequence for a Kilauea Iki basalt between 1250°C and 1149°C at 100 kPa total pressure and fO corresponding to the quartz-fayalite-magnetite buffer in an iron-saturated Pt30Rh rotating cup. viscometer of the Couette type. The apparent viscosity varies from 9 to 879 Pa.s. The concentration of suspended crystals varies from 18 volume percent at 1250°C to 59 volume percent at 1149°C. The molten silicate suspension shows power-law behavior: 2
