Stabilizer (glass)
The following compounds, called stabilizers , can be both network converters and network formers in the glass . However, they are not able to form a glass as an individual component. Their role in the glass is strongly dependent on the prevailing conditions, such as temperature and base glass composition:
- Aluminum oxide (Al 2 O 3 )
- Calcium oxide (CaO)
- Polonium (II) Oxide (PoO)
- Tin (II) oxide (SnO)
- Cadmium oxide (CdO)
- Titanium dioxide (TiO 2 )
- Beryllium oxide (BeO)
- Zirconium (IV) oxide (ZrO 2 )
- Thorium (IV) oxide (ThO 2 )
- Selenium (IV) oxide (SeO 2 )
- Iron (II) oxide (FeO)
- Iron (III) oxide (Fe 2 O 3 )
- Manganese (II) oxide (MnO)
- Nickel (II) oxide (NiO)
- Cobalt (II) oxide (CoO)
