Strengthening Of Soda-Lime Glass Rods By Heat Treatment Alone And Heat Treatment Plus Silanes

A study with soda-lime glass rods showed tha modulus of rupture values can be increased from approximately 18 ksi to 40 ksi by heat treatment. Dipping the rods into diethyldichlorosilane prior to heating at 593 degrees C or exposing hot glass to the silane vapour increased strength by a further 30%.
