The Borax Bead Test is a method of testing a material's plasticity and tensile strength. It involves heating a sample of an unknown material and then manipulating it into a bead shape. This bead shape is then heated to a higher temperature, that of its melting point, to observe how easily it will change shape. The results can help pinpoint the materials viscosity, tensile strength, and plastic deformation properties.
