ABSTRACT:
Solutions of soluble alkali metal silicates of exceptional clarity are prepared by dissolving anhydrous alkali metal silicate glass at atmospheric pressure by a novel process comprising the constant classification of alkali metal silicate glass particles according to size and the constant removal of the polymer-like silicate that forms as a semi-solid on the wetted glass surface. The constant classification of the silicate glass particles and removal of this polymeric silicate to yield nascent glass surfaces can be achieved by charging silicate glass particles to aqueous media in a vibrating or vibro energy mill and subjecting said particles to impacts of varying frequency and amplitude or by subjecting the solution and glass particles, during dissolution, to agitation of different intensity and duration in a vertically stacked series of dissolving chambers.
