Abstract

The R₂O-SiO₂-B₂O₃ glass has emerged as an important material due to its high performance. During the process of glass melting, copious amounts of bubbles can be produced. The bubbles are considered as serious defects of the R₂O-SiO₂-B₂O₃ glass and can induce negative effects on properties of glass, such as optical uniformity, mechanical property, etc. The influence of the fining agents on the properties of R₂O-SiO₂-B₂O₃ glass such as density, refractive index, and transmissivity were systematically studied. The results indicate that fining agents had influence on the density of the R₂O-SiO₂-B₂O₃ glass, fining agents do not have obvious impact on the refractive index and transmissivity of R₂O-SiO₂-B₂O₃ glass.
