Potencjał redox jako istotny parametr kontroli technologicznych procesów produkcji szkieł użytkowych. Cz. I - Potencjał redox stopu szklanego oraz czynniki wpływające na jego wartość.

In the paper, there have been described problems connected with function of the redox state in the melting process of the commercial glasses. Definition and the most important redox-reactions occuring during melting process of glass batch components have been presented as well as influence of some essential factors on the redox-potential values. Especially, attention has been devoted the problems connected with influence of such factors as chemical composition of glass batch, composition of gas atmosphere above the surface of the melt, application and organic contaminations of the cullet.
