Light Transmission of Glasses Synthesized on the Basis of Quartz Sand of Different Deposits

Аннотация

Container and sheet glass are synthesized from various batches with the equivalent addition of complexing decolorizers. The effect of ceria and potassium nitrate on the light transmission coefficient is investigated. Measurement of optical characteristics of the glasses shows that light transmittance increases up to 90–93% (λ = 500–750 nm). It is determined that an increase in the concentration of ceria and potassium nitrate up to particular values in the case of each composition results in the increase in hydrolytic stability, TLCE, and the light transmission coefficient.
