Properties of Glass Surface with Nano-Particles Aluminum Compounds Refined

Abstract:

New refining technology of soda – lime – silicon glassy surfaces with aluminum compounds nano-molecules has been presented in the present study. Structural definition of aluminum compounds nano-powders exposed to thermal processing, including grain-size analysis has been discussed. Optimal technical and technological parameters of the refining process have been selected. Refining method of soda – lime – silicon glassy surfaces with aluminum compounds nanomolecules assures profitable operational properties of the glass, such as increased bending strength, scratching strength, micro hardness and chemical resistance without deterioration of the optical properties. Nano-molecules were spread onto the heated glass surface, or onto cold glass surface and then heated up to temperatures close to the glass transformation, when nano-molecules penetrate into the glass surface. The layer thicknes as glass operational properties has been tested. From obtained results it can be explained the mechanism the incorporation of nano particles. The received results develop new possibilities with respect to container glass, float glass and glass fibres, as well as to glass processing.
