Abstract
Abstract Alkali silicate glasses, pigmented with Co2+ or with Co2+ and Ni2+, and having the composition: -SiO2 52-71% by weight -PbO 2.9-16.8% by weight -SnO2 0.1-1.65% by weight -Na2O 6.7-16.7% by weight -K2O 0.5-9.9% by weight -Na2O + K2O 13.3-18.3% by weight -NiO + CoO 0.1-4.4% by weight -As2O3 + Sb2O3 0.05-0.5% by weight - SIGMA RO 0-8.6% by weight -B2O3 0-8.5% by weight -Al2O3 0-0.55% by weight -ZnO 0-10.5% by weight, - in which R is Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba or a combination thereof, are disclosed. The alkali silicate glasses of the invention are useful as optical filter glasses.
