This lecture covers the composition of different types of glass, including network modifying oxides and network-forming oxides, as well as the properties of ordinary and special glasses such as chemical stability, resistance to thermal shocks, and the shine of the glass. It also discusses the manufacturing steps, heat treatments, and degradation of glass, along with the role of viscosity and the main glass products.
