Glass Glass is a non crystalline material that can maintain indefinitely, if left undisturbed, its overall form and amorphous microstructure at a temperature below its glass transition temperature. The most common method for glass pane production is using molten tin, where the molten glass floats on top of the perfectly flat molten tin, thus giving it the name "float glass". The refractive, reflective and transmission properties of glass make specific chemical compositions suitable for technological applications such as optics and optoelectronics. The manipulation of heated glass enables it to be shaped into different forms and the incorporation of additives at the manufacturing stage produces different colours which enable glass to be used as an art medium for display purposes. |
