Abstract
The influence of SnO2 on the chemical stability of sodium silicate glasses is investigated. The six glass compositions of ySnO2–37.9Na2O–(62.1-y)SiO2, y=1–8 mol.%, system were synthesized. Thermal behavior of the glasses was studied with the methods of dilatometry and DSC. It is shown that the hydrolytic resistance increases when growing the SnO2 concentration in the glass composition at constant Na2O content.
