Typically, glass contains around 15% sodium oxide, the other components being silicon dioxide and calcium oxide at around 70% and 9% improved mechanical properties due to its slight increases in elasticity.
Typically, glass contains around 15% sodium oxide, the other components being silicon dioxide and calcium oxide at around 70% and 9% respectively. Soda glass has a lower melting temperature vs pure silica and has improved mechanical properties due to its slight increases in elasticity.
