Abstract

The capacity of melted glasses of different compositions for being clarified by arsenic and antimony oxides is analyzed taking examples of industrial silicate optical crowns. It is established that the kinetics of the reaction of decomposition of arsenic pentoxide responsible for removing bubbles from the glass melt is closely related to the redox potential of the melt. Practical recommendations are given.
