The goal | The course contains the basics of technology of glassy materials. The scope of the course is investigation of glass structure, glassy state and properties. Students are introduced to procedures of production of commercial glass products, forming methods, annealing and secondary finishing operations. The goal is for student to overcome technological processes for commercial glass production. Students are able to understand and improve processes involved in glass technology. | |||
The outcome | Students gain knowledge on structure, specific properties and processes of obtaining glasses for special purposes. Students are able to control and direct the production of commercial glasses. | |||
