Method for producing glass compositions
Abstract
Abstract THERE ARE DISCLOSED SIO2 CONTAINING GLASSES CHARACTERISED BY HIGH MELTING POINTS AND LOW THERMAL EXPANSION COEFFICIENTS AND A PROCESS FOR PREPARING THEM UTILIZING TEMPARATURES SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER THAN HERETOFORE OPERABLE WITH SIO2 CONTAINING GLASS COMPOSITIONS. THE PROCESS INVOLVES EMPLOYING THE SIO2 OR ANOTHER PRINCIPAL COMPONENT OF THE GLASS IN THE FORM OF A LIQUID ORGANIC COMPOUND, AS FOR INSTANCE, IN THE FORM OF ITS ALCOHOLATE. THE LIQUID COMPONENT OR COMPONENTS ARE MIXED TOGETHER AND/OR WITH ANY NON-LIQUID COMPONENTS, HYDROLYZED AND GELLED. THE RESULTING MASS IS THEN SUBJECTED TO THE ACTION OF HEAT TO FORM A COMPLETELY HOMOGENEOUS OXIDIC MOLDED GLASS BODY CHARACTERIZED BY THE AFORENOTED PROPERTIES.
