Effect of Water Vapor on Sodium Vaporization from Two Silica‐Based Glasses

David Sanders, Wolfgang Haller

Abstract

The influence of water vapor pressure on the equilibrium sodium vapor densities over well‐stirred silica‐based glass melts was investigated. Sodium was assumed to be present in the vapor as Na and NaOH molecules, and the activity of Na.O in the melt was calculated as a function of water vapor pressure above the melt.
