Abstract
Oxidation-reduction processes play a very important part in glass manufacture, particularly in the preparation of homogeneous glass free from bubbles and in coloured glasses. The reactions have been studied by bringing melts to equilibrium in controlled atmospheres and determining at room temperature the quantities of the various species present by chemical analyses and by spectroscopy.
