Application of Natural Complex Raw Material in Container Glass Production

  • Published:
Glass and Ceramics Aims and scope Submit manuscript

It is shown that high-silica sedimentary rock can be used as a natural raw material in energy-efficient production of colored glass containers. The phosphorus oxide present in the rock influences the viscosity and crystallization properties of the synthesized glasses. The physical and chemical properties of the glass obtained correspond to the operating properties of container glass based on conventional raw material.
