Abstract

To investigate the influence of alkaline impurity K content on bubbles of quartz glass, samples were prepared based on $SiO_2$ sand with differing amounts of potassium hydroxide solution added by electric fusion. Bubble properties such as number, diameter and bubble fraction were determined using a stereoscopic microscope. The results of the observations indicated that an alkaline impurity content of 100 ppm had a good effect on bubble decline in quartz glass. The effect on OH was investigated by FTIR(Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy).
