Abstract
The results of the investigation of nonplanar zones on glass ribbons thermally polished on different technological lines are presented. It is shown that nonplanar zones 2–12 μm in size are typical of polished glass prepared on a metallic melt. These defects are mostly concentrated near the edge zones of the glass ribbon where they are shaped as bands. The best quality was detected in glass prepared on a line with a capacity of 150 ton/day with a ribbon 1.5 m wide.
