Abstract

The reasons for the increased tendency to foam formation in iron-containing glass melts depending on their composition, iron oxide concentration, and the melting medium are identified. The recommendations for the elimination of these reasons are provided. It is demonstrated that the foam in the iron-containing silicate melts is formed in the course of interaction of the ferritized melt and quartz.
