Abstract

Clarification of type E alkali-free glass (production of glass beads and continuous glass fiber) with sodium sulfate was investigated in comparison to antimonous anhydride and cerium dioxide. The high effectiveness of sulfate clarification was demonstrated and the process parameters for using it were determined.
