The effects of replacing 1 wt% Si02 by P205 in a typical container glass composition have been investigated. High temperature viscosity, liquidus temperature, chemical durability, thermal expansion coefficient, dilatometric softening point, glass transition temperature and density were measured to assess more fully the potential technological benefits of using small P2O5 additions in soda-lime-silica glass manufacture.
