ABSTRACT:
Hard glass fire retardant glasses can be tempered in a conventional air tempering plant having heat transmission values of approximately 200-500 W/(m.sup.2 .times.K) yielding in the tempered state a fire resistance period of at least 30 minutes according to DIN 4102 and the safety properties according to DIN 1249 (safe break). In order to achieve the combination of fire resistance period and safety properties, the glasses must have a coefficient of thermal expansion .alpha..sub.20/300 of between 3 and 6.times.10.sup.-6 K.sup.-1, a specific thermal stress .phi. of between 0.3 and 0.5 N/(mm.sup.2 .times.K), a glass transition temperature Tg of between 535.degree. and 850.degree. C., a product of specific thermal stress .phi. multiplied by (Tg -20.degree. C.) of between 180 and 360 N/mm.sup.2, an upper annealing temperature (temperature at a viscosity of 10.sup.13 dpas) of over 560.degree. C., a softening temperature (temperature at a viscosity of 107.sup.7.6 dpas) of over 830.degree. C. and a working temperature (temperature at a viscosity of 10.sup.4 dpas) of below 1300.degree. C.
