The rapid analysis of glasses and raw materials using EDTA.

JSGT  1959 V43 T037-T053

Methods for the determination of calcium oxide in limestone, calcium, and magnesium oxides in soda–lime–silica glasses and lead and aluminium oxides in lead crystal glasses are described. The speed of determination of these constituents has been greatly increased by the use of EDTA because all separations have been eliminated. Accuracy equal to that of the 'classical' methods has been obtained.
