The effect of gas atmosphere on the physicochemical processes of float-glass formation

Based on the analysis of patent information, scientific and technical literature and developments of the Saratov Institute of Glass, the influence of the gas environment on the physical and chemical processes of forming float glass was determined. Techniques for regulating physicochemical conditions in the melt bath are considered. The possibilities of purposefully changing the composition and properties of the float glass surface by exposure to a gaseous medium are shown. Il. 1, bibliography: 4 titles.
