Abstract

319,337. Corning Glass Works, (Assignees of Hood, H. P.). Sept. 21, 1928, [Convention date]. Production of metal.-Relates to the method of producing glasses which transmit a high proportion of ultraviolet rays by using batch material which are free from iron and titanium, as described in Specification 263,410. The present invention deals with the selection and treatment of the batch materials. The silica preferably consists of vein quartz which has been crushed and then treated to remove any iron introduced during crushing. In making a borosilicate glass, a boron compound is added to the batch in such a quantity that, in the resulting gases, the sum of the percentages of silica and boric oxide is from 10 to 22 times the sum of the percentages of alkalies, and the percentage of silica is at least five times that of the boric oxide. When iron is present, a reducing material is necessary and carbon, or a carbonaceous compound, is convenient for this purpose. Carbon imparts a yellow or amber colour to the glass, but the addition of zinc oxide neutralizes the yellow colour and the resulting glass has a bluish green tinge. The zinc oxide should be specially purified to remove any traces of lead that may be present. The batch is melted in pots made of fused quartz, or in small tanks constructed of good quality silica bricks. The air and fuel gases used for heating the furnace are preferably filtered, and burners with nickel tips are used to prevent the introduction of iron scale.
