EFFECT OF THE REDOX POTENTIAL OF THE GLASS BATCH AND CULLET ON THE TINTING OF INDUSTRIALLY PRODUCED GLASS CONTAINING IRON OXIDES

摘要

The effect of the redox potential of the glass batch and cullet on the tint of industrially produced glasses containing up to 0.5 percent iron oxides is studied. The batch redox boundaries making it possible to obtain glass of green, bluish-green, yellow-green, and brown tints are delineated. The obtained results make it possible to predict the tint and tint shade of glass at the stage of batch preparation.
