CHARACTERISTICS AND APPLICATIONS OF SOLUBLE GLASS Soluble glass‚ also called foam alkali‚ is an alkali metal air hardening material. In construction‚ it is usually used to prepare sodium silicate cement‚ soluble glass mortar‚ and soluble glass concrete. Soluble glass is widely used in the anti-acid and heat-resistant engineering. The main method to produce soluble glass is to grind and stir calcined soda and quartz sand which are the major raw materials‚ then fuse them in the melting pot of 130O-140OnC
