Résumé
This book is one of a series reporting on international research and development activities conducted by the Schott Group companies. With the series Schott aims to provide an overview of its activities for scientists, engineer and managers from all branches of industry world-wide where glass and glass ceramics are of interest. Each volume begins with a chapter providing a general idea of the current problems, results, and trends to the subject treated. This volume lays the foundations for:
- quantitative chemical analysis and structure determination of glasses and glass ceramics;
- prediction of properties in the development of new materials;
- Supervision of production processes, including raw materials, evaporation from the melt, exhaust gases, and environmental concerns;
- troubleshooting in the case of glass defects in combination with research for the design of faultless (in the PPM range) or at least high-yield processes;
- understanding the origin of customer complaints
because of unfulfilled expectations concerning material properties or product behaviour.
The book is conceived as a monograph. The individual chapters, however, are written by leading experts on the corresponding subjects. Many figures, tables, and examples are chosen to introduce the reader to the practice of chemical analysis, structure identification, and interpretation of the vitreous state.
