The effect of the balance between aliovalent iron forms on the melting temperature and homogeneity of glass in conditions of industrial production

A comprehensive analysis of the equilibrium of iron on industrial glass-melting float systems of different productivity has been carried out. A close relationship has been shown between the concentration of iron in glass, its melting temperature and homogeneity. The reasons for the deterioration of the homogeneity of the glass melt in continuous production are analyzed, and practical recommendations are given. Tab. 8, bibliography: 9 titles.
