JSGT 1959 V43 T094-T099

The paper describes the progress made in the application of a flame photometric method in a glassworks laboratory. The equipment used is described and a method is given for the determination of the alkali metals in glasses and glass-making materials. Factors influencing the accuracy of the determinations are discussed and results are given of a number of analyses carried out on a variety of samples.
