Abstract
The interaction of magnesium-containing refractory materials and optical glasses is considered. It is shown that in most cases such materials cannot be used in glass melting because their corrosion resistance is lower than in conventional refractories owing to the formation of stones and crystalline inclusions in the glass. It is possible to use magnesium-containing refractories for melting high-lead glass.
