Abstract

The effect of alkaline treatment on the destruction process and some surface characteristics of mechanically processed glass discs of lead-silicate glasses C87-2 and C78-4 has been studied. It is shown that the interaction of these glasses with barium hydroxide leads to the removal of silicic acid from the gel surface, which in turn improves the water wettability and optical transparency of the glasses. It is proposed in the production technology of electric vacuum devices, where lead-silicate glasses are used, to use washing with barite water for rapid coagulation of silica gel, which eliminates the appearance of foreign particles on the surface of the glasses.
