Historically, the production of amber glass has experienced a number of problems associated with melting, refining and thermal conditioning. This article reviews the chemical aspects of amber properties which relate to these difficulties, as well as optimum raw material and batching technology practices. A particular emphasis will relate to avoiding thermal reboil blisters.
