One of the best presentations of a rather complex set of operations to make a variety of glass products that we all take for granted. No annoying music or distractions with only a crip explanation of all the vital steps from mining to making the most sophisticated products like fiber optics and lenses
-
What a show about float and blown glass! Bravo on this production.
-
My family was involved in the making of glass bottles & jars for many years. You might say we had glass in our blood. I was familiar with all but the last part of this video presentation. The glass fiber optical method I have seen before. However, the last part about data storage just blew me away. That is the new age of glass. Exciting times lay ahead. This is a great video.

Glass, one of the greatest inventions ever.
-
Extremely well done documentary. Using glass as a data storage medium is a stroke of genius and could ensure that digitized motion pictures and sound would be archived for centuries. Almost totally immune to temperature and moisture contamination, this medium would be ideal for very long time storage and retrieval of historic film and sound recordings. Thanks for posting!

that's a documentary 🙌
-
Really appreciate it and enjoyed it thoroughly well done I've learned so much from this article
-
I really did enjoy this video. I didn’t know that it took so much material to make glass, but I learned something new and it’s very fascinating. The way these products are made.
-
Very well done and I could never figure out how to make plate glass, never thought of floating it on tin. This should be standard course material in primary and secondary education.
-
Wonderful video. Thanks for sharing!💚

Fused quartz glass is very hard to work with. That is why they add softening impurities such as Boron and Potassium. This reduces the energy required to soften the material, as well as changing the glasses coefficient of expansion. You can create layers of glass with a gradual expansion rate, that can be manipulated to expand and contract, at the same rate as certain metals, at tremendous temperatures.

I had a few float glass factories as clients that I visited regularly. Watching float glass go from sand, etc. to cut stacked sheets was fascinating. Although there no aluminum was allowed as if an aluminum can or even just a pull tab it would leave fish eyes in the final product.

Great documentary 3

Excellent stuff ! ... 👍
-
Fantástico
-
This was really very interesting.
-
My job as an ISO assessor afforded me the opportunity to go to many glass plants; however, these were for glass fibers of all types. Only one was a bottle plant for medical applications. Most fascinating of operations. Great video.

Silicon is the most abundant material that makes up the Earth.That's why it's so widely mined
-
Wow. That was a mind blowing documentary. Thank you.
-
Super interesting.
