Corrosion Behaviour Of Some Industrial Glasses In Hydrochloric Acid Solution

Glass technologists recognize that glass has measurable chemical reactions with contact aqueous solutions which differs with various controlling factors. Therefore, the resistance of glass, known as chemical durability, depends upon several factors such as the chemical composition and surface characteristics of the glass, the nature of the attacking agent, the duration for which the glass is kept in contact with it, and the temperature of the corrosive aqueous solution. In this work, the corrosion behaviour of some selected industrial silicate glasses of various commercial applications toward 0.1 N hydrochloric acid solutions were investigated using the solution exchange test.
