Glass compositions

material made by fusing powdered glass to a substrate by firing

variety of glass in which lead replaces the calcium content of a typical potash glass

chemical compound

layer or coating of vitreous substance fused to a ceramic object

chemical compound

Aluminosilicate refers to materials containing anionic Si-O-Al linkages. Commonly, the associate cations are sodium (Na+), potassium (K+) and protons (H+). Such materials occur as minerals, coal combustion products and as synthetic materials, often in the form of zeolites. Both synthetic and natural aluminosilicates are of technical significance as structural materials, catalysts, and reagents.

chemical compound

type of glass with silica and boron trioxide as the main glass-forming constituents

type of glass

glass colored with uranium oxide

optical glass that has relatively high refractive index and low Abbe number (high dispersion)

thumb|upright=1.2|Trinitite Trinitite, also known as atomsite or Alamogordo glass, is the glassy residue left on the desert floor after the plutonium-based Trinity nuclear bomb test on July 16, 1945, near Alamogordo, New Mexico. The glass is primarily made of arkosic sand composed of quartz grains and feldspar (both microcline and smaller amount of plagioclase with small amount of calcite, hornblende and augite in a matrix of sandy clay) that was melted by the atomic blast. It was first academically described in American Mineralogist in 1948.
