Abstract
A method for the manufacture of glass bodies, in which a thixotropic suspension, being the starting material for the glass body, is used to form a porous green body which is subsequently purified and sintered, the starting material being liquefied in a mould by subjecting it to mechanical forces, and subsequently freeing it of the influence of the said forces, after which it solidifies again to form a green body.
