The second edition of a comprehensive reference in glass science, pointing out the correlation between the performance of industrial processes and practice–relevant properties, such as strength and optical properties. Interdisciplinary in his approach, the author discusses both the science and technology, starting with an outline of history and applications, glass structure, and rheology. The sections on properties include mechanical strength and contact resistance, ageing, mechanics of glass processes, the production and control of residual stresses, high–tech products, and current research and development. Applications include optical glass, glass fibers for reinforcement, and abrasive tools.
