Verfahren zur Herstellung von synthetischen Silicaten und deren Verwendung für die Glasherstellung

A method is disclosed of producing a calcium silicate precursor material. The method is advantageous in providing material useful in glass making. Such method involves the reaction of calcium oxides and magnesium oxides, water and sodium silicates. The glass formation is performed at a lower temperature than usual and performed with a lower amount of volatile gas release. Less cristobalite formation in the glass occurs.
