    Determination of the water content of alkali lime silica glasses by IR spectroscopy using nuclear reaction analysis for calibration
    (Offenbach : Verlag der Deutschen Glastechnischen Gesellschaft, 1998) Harder, Ulrike; Geißler, Heinz; Gaber, Martin; Hähnert, Manfred; Dersch, Oliver; Rauch, Friedrich
    Systematic IR and NRA investigations were performed for two series of glasses with very different water contents. The glasses had the composition (in mol%): 16 R₂O · 10 CaO · 74 SiO₂ (R = sodium, potassium). The IR absorption coefTicients of the OH bands were found to be linearly correlated with the total hydrogen content obtained by the NRA measurements. Using the hydrogen concentration values from NRA, the total water contents were calculated and so-called practical IR extinction coefTicients were deduced. The values found for the soda-lime-silica glasses are 381 · mol¯¹ · cm¯¹ for the band at 3550cm¯¹ and 561 · mol¯¹ · cm¯¹ for the band at 2800cm¯¹. The values for the potassium-lime-silica glasses are 231 · mol¯¹ · cm¯¹ for the band at 3550 cm¯¹ and 78 l · mol¯¹ · cm¯¹ for the band at 2800 cm¯¹ Also, Scholze's two-band method was applied, resulting in good agreement between the water contents of the glasses derived from the IR and the NRA measurements.

    Water release behaviour of soda-lime-silica glass melts
    (Offenbach : Verlag der Deutschen Glastechnischen Gesellschaft, 1995) Gaber, Martin; Harder, Ulrike; Hähnert, Manfred; Geißler, Heinz
    Glass with the composiüon (in mol%) 16Na₂O * 10CaO * 74SiO₂ and a water content of 0.12 to 0.005 mol/1 has been investigated by IR spectroscopy. It has been found that at a water content of < 0.01 mol/l the rado of the extincdons of the absorpdon bands at 3550 and 2800 cm⁻¹ is not constant. Through the vacuum hot extraction method it could be shown that the release of bonded water from glass melt does not occur continuously, and is not determined by the kinetics of formadon of molecular water. At concentrations > 0.01 mol/l the largest part of bonded water is released at temperatures < 1000°C. Small amounts of water can be detected at temperatures > 1250°C as well. This high-temperature release of strongly bonded water is caused by changes in the structure of glass melt or by the simultaneous release of other volatile species.
