Question

glass production short note​

Answer 1

Answer:

Glass production involves two main methods – the float glass process that produces sheet glass, and glassblowing that produces bottles and other containers

Explanation:

Glass container production :-

Broadly, modern glass container factories are three-part operations: the batch house, the hot end, and the cold end. The batch house handles the raw materials; the hot end handles the manufacture proper—the forehearth, forming machines, and annealing ovens; and the cold end handles the product-inspection and packaging equipment.

Float glass:-

Float glass is a sheet of glass made by floating molten glass on a bed of molten metal, typically tin, although lead and other various low-melting-point alloys were used in the past. This method gives the sheet uniform thickness and very flat surfaces.[1]

Modern windows are made from float glass. Most float glass is soda-lime glass, although relatively minor quantities of specialty borosilicate[2] and flat panel display glass are also produced using the float glass process.[3] The float glass process is also known as the Pilkington process, named after the British glass manufacturer Pilkington, which pioneered the technique in the 1950s at their production site in St Helens, Merseyside.
