Hydrofluoric acid vapors or baths of hydrofluoric acid salts may be used to give glass a matte, frosted appearance (similar to that obtained by surface sandblasting), as found in lighting glass. Glass designs can be produced by coating the glass with wax and then inscribing the desired pattern through the wax layer. When applied, the acid will corrode the glass but not attack the wax-covered areas. Alumina-silicate Glass Alumina (aluminum oxide Al2O3) is added to the glass batch in the form of commonly found feldspars containing alkalis in order to help improve chemical resistance and mechanical strength, and to increase viscosity at lower temperatures. Angle of Incidence The angle formed between a ray of light striking a surface and the normal line (the line perpendicular to the surface at that point). Annealing Under natural conditions, the surface of molten glass will cool more rapidly than the center. This results in internal stress- es which may cause the glass sheet or object to crack, shatter or even explode some time later. The annealing process is designed to eliminate or limit such stresses by submitting the glass to strictly controlled cooling in a special oven known as a “lehr”. Inside the lehr, the glass is allowed to cool to a temperature known as the “annealing point”.

This complexity stands as a promising technology for the 21st century since the need for environmentally friendly materials has reached a critical point due to climate change. However, such a wide range of variability makes new glass compositions difficult to design. The difficulty is only exaggerated when considering that not only is there an infinite variability in the compositional space, but also an infinite variability thermal history of a glass and in the crystallinity of glass-cearmics. This means that even for a simple binary glass there are at least 3 dimensions that have to be optimized. To resolve this difficulty, it is shown that energy landscapes can capture all three sets of complexity (composition, thermal history, and crystallinity). The explicit energy landscape optimization, however, has a large computational cost.

  • Vitrification of Historic and Future High Level Nuclear Wastes Within Alkali Borosilicate Glasses
    Vitrification of historic and future high level nuclear wastes within alkali borosilicate glasses Andrew James Connelly M.Eng. A Thesis submitted to the Department of Engineering Materials at the University of Sheffield in partial fulfilment of the requirement for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy. February 2008 The University Of Sheffield. Abstract The disposal of highly radioactive and toxic wastes generated by the nuclear industry is one of the biggest challenges facing the world today. Currently, in the UK there is a large legacy waste holding which has been accumulating since nuclear energy was first harnessed during World War 2. Processing of this waste with a view to final disposal is a complex and difficult task. This work investigates one aspect of that process, namely turning this waste into glass (or vitrification). This work uses multiple techniques including x-ray absorption spectroscopy, magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance and molecular dynamic simulations, to investigate the structural role of Zr02 and U 03 within the alkali borosilicate glass used in the UK for waste immobilisation. The effect of these additions on the bulk glass structure and selected glass properties are also explored. In waste glasses Zr occurs as a 6 co-ordinated Zr ion surrounded by Si, B, Na and Li. The effect of Zr02 additions on the bulk glass structure and properties is highly complex. The addition of Zr02 appears to be characterised by a non-linearity in the trends of certain physical and structural parameters. At low levels of Zr02 the level of leaching from the glasses and the co­ ordination of B increase.

  • 6-Stained Glass in Lancaster
    STAINED GLASS IN LANCASTER Lancaster Civic Society Leaflet 6 St Thomas, in Lancaster Priory by R.F. Ashmead of Abbott & Co (1966} The beauty of stained glass has been recognised since the Middle Ages and it is still popular. Lancaster had three notable stained-glass firms – Seward & Co, Shrigley & Hunt and Abbott & Co – which produced fine work from 1825 to 1996, relying on their artists and craftsmen. Their work The later nineteenth century was a good time for stained glass – new churches, hospitals, town halls, ocean liners, pubs and country houses – the firms’ work can be seen in all these. Shrigley and Hunt initially favoured a Pre-Raphaelite style, lighter in design and colour than its predecessors, strongly decorative, detailed, with realistic scenes and faces telling clear allegories and Biblical stories. Stronger colours were used in the 1880s. Their two main artists, Edward Holme Jewitt and Carl Almquist, had different styles, so widening the firm’s client base. They opened a studio in London to keep Almquist in the firm and to pick up on metropolitan shifts in taste. The firm also made decorative wall tiles. Abbott & Co followed these Late Victorian and Edwardian trends but also developed more modernist styles for interwar houses and in the 1960s. Both firms got contracts in association with the noted Lancaster architectural practice of Paley and Austin. Shrigley and Hunt used their London contacts to get work with Richard Norman Shaw and Alfred Waterhouse. Local magnates such as the Storeys and Williamsons of Lancaster and the brewing families of Boddington (Manchester) and Greenall (Warrington) also patronised them.

  • Borosilicate Glass Wafers Are an Inexpensive Alternative
    Basics of Microstructuring 01 Chapter MicroChemicals® – Fundamentals of Microstructuring www.microchemicals.com/downloads/application_notes.html PRODUCTION AND SPECIFICATIONS OF GLASS WAFERS For applications where neither the high dielectric strength of quartz nor the high transparency is in the ultravi- olet, visible or infrared spectral range or the thermal stability of quartz or quartz glass is required, borosilicate glass wafers are an inexpensive alternative. Borosilicate Glass and Ordinary Glass in Comparison Composition Borosilicate glass consists of approximately 80% of silicon dioxide (SiO2) and approximately 5-15% boron trioxide (B2O3). Other additives are alkaline oxide (Na2O, K2O), aluminium oxide (Al2O3) and alkaline po- tassium oxide (CaO, MgO). Borosilicate glasses typically have a very low iron content, which causes the typical green colour of window glass in order to increase the transparency. Properties Due to its boron content, borosilicate glass exhibit a higher chemical stability against water, many chemi- cals and pharmaceutical products compared to window glass. In addition, borosilicate glass exhibits signifi cantly higher thermal stability against temperature fl uctua- tions due to its thermal expansion coeffi cients, which are less than half as large as compared to window glass. Production of Glass Wafers For the further processing into glass wafers, specifi c borosilicate glass is produced using the “fl oat pro- cess” (Fig. 37). Hereby the molten glass on melted tin forms a fl oating both-side smooth ribbon with a homogeneous thickness. On its way on the tin bath, the temperature is gradually reduced from 1100 down to 600°C until the sheet can be lifted onto rollers. Glass pane Glass melt Tin melt Fig.
