2. Soda–lime glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soda–lime_glass

   The manufacturing process for soda–lime glass consists in melting the raw materials, which are the silica, soda (Na 2 O), hydrated lime (Ca(OH) 2), dolomite (CaMg(CO 3) 2, which provides the magnesium oxide), and aluminium oxide; along with small quantities of fining agents (e.g., sodium sulfate (Na 2 SO 4), sodium chloride (NaCl), etc.) in a glass furnace at temperatures locally up to 1675 ...

3. Fused quartz - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fused_quartz

   These lenses are used for UV photography, as the quartz glass can be transparent at much shorter wavelengths than lenses made with more common flint or crown glass formulas. Fused quartz can be metallised and etched for use as a substrate for high-precision microwave circuits, the thermal stability making it a good choice for narrowband filters ...

5. Uranium glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uranium_glass

   Uranium glass is used as one of several intermediate glasses in what is known to scientific glass blowers as a 'graded seal'. This is typically used in glass-to-metal seals such as tungsten and molybdenum or nickel based alloys such as Kovar, as an intermediary glass between the metal sealing glass and lower expansion borosilicate glass.

6. Tempered glass - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tempered_glass

   Tempered glass is used for its safety and strength in a variety of applications, including passenger vehicle windows (apart from windshield), shower doors, aquariums, architectural glass doors and tables, refrigerator trays, mobile phone screen protectors, bulletproof glass components, diving masks, and plates and cookware.

7. Poly(methyl methacrylate) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poly(methyl_methacrylate)

   The glass sample vial of the corrosive and poisonous liquid has been cast into an acrylic plastic cube. Methyl methacrylate "synthetic resin" for casting (simply the bulk liquid chemical) may be used in conjunction with a polymerization catalyst such as methyl ethyl ketone peroxide (MEKP), to produce hardened transparent PMMA in any shape, from ...
