A bstract Factors have been derived for the calculation of the surface tensions of glasses from their compositions at temperatures of 1200° and 1400°C. The nine oxides evaluated are those commonly found in significant amounts in glass compositions. The surface tension of a glass may be calculated with a fair degree of assurance from its composition to within about 4 dynes per cm.
