  2. Glass fusing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_fusing

    Fused and kiln-formed glass sculpture. Glass fusing is the joining together of pieces of glass at high temperature, usually in a kiln. [1] [2] This is usually done roughly between 700 °C (1,292 °F) and 820 °C (1,510 °F), [3] [4] and can range from tack fusing at lower temperatures, in which separate pieces of glass stick together but still retain their individual shapes, [5] to full fusing ...

  3. Fused quartz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fused_quartz

    Fused quartz, fused silica or quartz glass is a glass consisting of almost pure silica (silicon dioxide, SiO 2) in amorphous (non-crystalline) form.

  4. List of physical properties of glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_physical...

    Unless stated otherwise, the properties of fused silica (quartz glass) and germania glass are derived from the SciGlass glass database by forming the arithmetic mean of all the experimental values from different authors (in general more than 10 independent sources for quartz glass and T g of germanium oxide glass). The list is not exhaustive.

  5. Warm glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warm_glass

    Higgins Glass, fused and slumped ashtray and bowl Fused glass piece with dichroic glass highlights. Warm glass or kiln-formed glass is the working of glass, usually for artistic purposes, by heating it in a kiln. The processes used depend on the temperature reached and range from fusing and slumping to casting.

  6. Glass casting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass_casting

    A bowl made from cast-glass. The two halves are joined together by the weld seam, running down the middle. Glass casting is the process in which glass objects are cast by directing molten glass into a mould where it solidifies. The technique has been used since the 15th century BCE in both Ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. Modern cast glass is ...

  7. Glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glass

    Silicon dioxide (SiO 2) is a common fundamental constituent of glass. Fused quartz is a glass made from chemically pure silica. [68] It has very low thermal expansion and excellent resistance to thermal shock, being able to survive immersion in water while red hot, resists high temperatures (1000–1500 °C) and chemical weathering, and is very ...

  8. Trinitite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinitite

    Trinitite, also known as atomsite or Alamogordo glass, [1] [2] 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.

  9. Fourcault process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourcault_process

    The Fourcault process uses a ceramic die to shape fused (or molten) glass into a ribbon of rectangular cross section. The die, known as a debiteuse, floats in the molten glass inside of the pit to a prescribed depth which pushes a part of the molten glass slightly above the top surface of the die.
