Alkali-Silicat-Glas

摘要

Alkali silicate glass contains 55.0-71.0 wt.% silica (SiO2), 5.0-16.0 wt.% alumina (Al2O3), 0.2-10.0 wt.% boron oxide (B2O3), 4.5-10.0 wt.% potassium oxide (K2O) and 3.0-14.0 wt.% sodium oxide (Na2O). Also claimed are (a) a method of producing the glass; and (b) dental material and moulded dental products containing the glass. The glass ceramic is produced by (a) melting a glass containing the specified components at 1200-1650 degrees C, (b) granulation by pouring the melt into water, (c) optionally pulverising to an average particle size of 1-450 mu m; and (d) thermal treatment of the granulate or powder for 30 minutes to 6 hours at > 900 degrees C and ≤ 1200 degrees C.
