2. GLASS Introduction Raw materials of glass are plentiful and cheap, and glass has high abrasion-resistance, light-transmission properties and resistance to weathering or chemical attack. Ordinary glass is based on silica or sand (silicon oxide-SiO 2 ). Although silica forms the basic network of glass, it is not used in the pure form because its melting point is too high (1700 o C). Instead, the silica network is modified by compounds such as sodium carbonate (Na 2 CO 3 ). 1

Hence ‘soda-glass’, as the material is known, melts at a much lower temperature (800 o C). Unfortunately soda-glass is water soluble and calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) is added to stabilize the glass. The approximately composition of the raw materials for a typical soda-lime glass is; SiO 2 (silicone oxide): 75% Na 2 CO 3 (sodium carbonate): 15% CaCO 3 (calcium carbonate-limestone): 10% Smaller amounts of other materials such as “Manganese dioxide”, lead or borax can be added. 2

Manganese Dioxide: To remove coloration due to iron in the sand. Lead: To produce high density glass resistant to X-rays. Borax: To produce glass having low thermal movement-resistant to thermal shocks. 3

Manufacture Of Glass The raw materials are mixed, in the correct proportions, with a quantity of scrap glass “cullet”, and heated to about 1500 o C. The cullet melts first and permits reaction and fusion of the remaining ingredients at temperatures below the melting point of pure silica. 4

Manufacture Of Glass The liquid is then cooled to o C, at which its viscosity is sufficiently high for foaming. The most important processes are as follows: The Flat-drawn process: The glass is drawn upwards on a metal grille known as a “BAIT”, the sheet engaging with rollers which prevent its waisting. Rolled Glass: The glass is drawn off in a horizontal ribbon on rollers and is then annealed (allow to cool slowly). Such glasses do not give clear vision but can be given textured or patterned finishes, allowing high transmission but giving some privacy when used in glazed doors or partitions. Wire may be incorporated against injury from impact. 5

Manufacture Of Glass Float Glass: This glass is optically flat and is produced by drawing it, while still soft, along the surface of molten tin in a bath. It is now used for general glazing purposes, as well as mirrors, shop windows and other situations where clear, undistorted vision is essential. 7

Strength Of Glass An indication of maximun tensile strength is obtained by tests on very thin glass fibers which are sensible free of flaws and are found to withstand stresses of up to 3000 MPa. Strength reduces on aging, as surface imperfections increase, whether by chemical attack or simply mechanical abrasion; glass which has weathered for some years being much weaker than new glass. 9

Toughened Glass The surface flaws in glass can be removed chemically but toughening can be carried out more simply by heat treatment. Sheet glass is heated uniformly until just plastic and then cooled by air jets. The outers layers contract and solidify and then, as inner layers try to follow, they throw the outer layers into compression, tending to close the microscopic cracks. In this way, the overall strength of the glass can be increased several times and impact strength may increase sevenfold. 10

Toughened glass 11

Laminated Glass This provides a high degree of resistance to injury from flying glass in case of impact. Two sheets of glass are bonded with a thin film of plastic such as polyvinyl butynate, under pressure at a temperature of about 100 o C. This glass absorbs energy in impacts but, most importantly, stops glass shattering and disintegrating. Higher levels of impact resistance can be produced by increasing the number of glass/plastic laminates; bullet-and missile-proof glazing are made in this way. 12

Thickness & Weight The thickness of glass for ordinary glazing should increase with wind load and glass area. Square sheets should be thicker in general than rectangular sheets since, for a given area, there is less restraint at the center of a square sheet of glass. In many cases, it will, nevertheless, be more economic to supply glass of uniform thickness to withstand the most demanding situation in a given building, since this simplifies supply, installation and future replacement. 13

Thermal Properties Of Glass Solar Heat Gain Plain glass transmits some ultraviolet, light and is quite transparent to visible and infra red light of wavelength up to about 3  m. Hence, most energy in the sun’s rays is transmitted by ordinary glass, causing warming of internal surfaces. In order to control solar energy, the followings can be done; use, tinted, heat-absorbent types of glass (colorful glasses) 50% of heat can be absorbed. Heat-reflecting glass can be achieved by thin metallic surface coatings, usually applied to the inner face of the outer glass sheet in sheet double glazing, for protection, though they can also be used for single glazing about 40% of the heat is reflected in this case. 14

Heat Losses from Glass: (U value, W/m 2 o C) When solar radiation is reduced, as in winter, the heat flow in glass can reverse quite dramatically. Double glazing operates by providing double the number of glass/air interfaces. 17

18

Fire Performance Ordinary glass has a poor performance in fire due to its tendency to shatter when heated. A period of 60 minutes stability can be achieved by use of wired glass. 19

Sound Insulation The sound-reduction properties of glazing are typical of those of a thin panel or membrane. In double glazing the cavity size required for effective sound reduction is about 200 mm, much larger than that for best thermal insulation properties. To be satisfactory, it is extremely important that air paths through glazing should be prevented. 20

Self-cleaning glass is a specific type of glass with surface which keeps itself free of dirt through natural processes.glass 23

The first self-cleaning glass was based on thin film titanium dioxide coating. The glass cleans itself in two stages.thin filmtitanium dioxide 1. The "photocatalytic" stage of the process breaks down the organic dirt on the glass using ultraviolet light in sunlight (even on overcast days) and makes the glass hydrophilic (normally glass is hydrophobic).photocatalyticultravioletsunlighthydrophilichydrophobic 2. During the following "hydrophilic" stage rain washes away the dirt, leaving almost no streaks, because hydrophilic glass spreads the water evenly over its surface.rain 24

It is speculated that other possible application areas are computer monitors and PDA screens, where fingerprints are undesirable.PDAfingerprints 25

Titanium dioxide–based glass cannot decompose thick non-transparent deposits, such as paint or silicone, waterstop fingerprints or bleeding after weathering, or stucco dust produced during construction.siliconewaterstopstucco Another approach to self-cleaning glass is suggested basing on the hydrophobic "lotus effect".lotus effect Since 2001 the TC24 "Coatings on Glass" committee International Commission on Glass has been trying to set up test methods for evaluation of photocatalytic self-cleaning coatings on glass.International Commission on Glass 26

Titanium dioxide is a material of choice because it is characterized by high photocalytic properties, chemical stability and low price. Its anatase phase is most photocalytic. What is more, under the UV irradiation its surface structure changes to generate OH groups, making it superhydrophilic. anatasesuperhydrophilic 27
