A glass ceramic material based on the waste from lamp production
The authors consider the possibility of obtaining a glass ceramic material using the waste from lamp production to make the caps of lowpressure fluorescent lamps. To obtain the glass-ceramic material the authors used the glass granulate material and aluminum oxide. The thermal-expansion coefficients and the physiochemical properties of the speciments were shown. The thermal-shock resistance of the specimens of glass ceramic mateial with a drop in temperature from 600 C to air temperature is 25 heat cycles and with a drop from 500 C, 15 heat cycles. This is significantly better than the thermal-shock resistance of lamp glasses and some types of ceramic materials. Under plant and laboratory conitions using the normal method, fluoroescent lamps were prepared with glass-ceramic caps which withstood all the tests.
