Drawing Of Oxynitride Glass Fibres

Glass fibres were drawn from three MgO-Al203-Y203-Si02-based oxynitride glass melts. a single-hole bushing process was used to spin the melts containing nitrogen between about 13 and 16 at.%. The drawing process is described in detail, and it is shown that besides melt viscosity the high surface tension of the oxynitride glass melts strongly controls the fiberization. This is analyzed in terms of Reynolds and Weber numbers.
