These glasses tend to crystallize and appear as semi-crystalline slags, but not as real glasses. Glasses with > 90% SiO2 and little Na2O (< 5%) may have also the softening temperatures above 750°C. However, these glasses hardly find applications. The quartz glass has the maximum softening temperature from this system (approx. 1250°C).
As a glass is heated, the glass flows more easily. The resistance to flow is known as viscosity. At the softening point, the glass has a viscosity of 10 7.6 poise. This point is often used to define the working range of the glass. Once the glass has reached the softening point, it is malleable without melting.
The annealing temperature is selected based on the glass transition temperature, allowing any stress to be released before completely cooling the glass. The Littleton softening point (T s) of glass is the temperature at which the glass moves under its own weight. As a glass is heated, the glass flows more easily.
The softening point is the temperature at which the glass begins to soften and deform, which corresponds to the point at which the viscosity of the glass reaches 10 7.6 dPa·s. In sealing applications, glass must soften and deform at a temperature that matches the heat resistance of the material being sealed.
