Abstract
When using a copper-containing molten metal support upon which glass is melted, diffusion of copper into the melting glass is inhibited by including in the molten metal an element less noble than copper at the melter temperature. The element may be silicon, aluminum, boron, magnesium, manganese, molybdenum, iron, or cobalt.
