HIGH-SILICEOUS ROCK AS A COMPLEX RAW MATERIAL FOR CONTAINER GLASS MANUFACTURE
It was explored the possibility of using high-siliceous rock - porcelanite - as a substitute for traditional raw materials in glass industry - quartz sand, chalk, sodium sulfate and dye. The features of the behavior of glass batches based on porcelanite during silication and vitrification stages have been revealed. Intensifying influence of rock raw material on vitrification and refining in the glass has been established.
