Abstract
To optimize a known method for producing a composite body from a basic body of opaque quartz glass and a dense sealing layer, in such a way that the basic body can be provided with the dense sealing layer without any significant changes and deformations in the opaque material being noticed, the invention suggests a method comprising the following steps: (a) producing the basic body by using a first slip which contains larger amorphous SiOparticles; (b) providing a second slip which contains smaller amorphous SiOparticles and the composition of which differs from that of the first slip at least in that it contains SiOnanoparticles in the range between 0.2% by wt. to 15% by wt. and which is distinguished by a relatively low vitrification temperature; (d) producing a slip layer from the second slip on a surface of the basic body, drying the slip layer, and (e) subsequently vitrifying the slip layer with formation of the dense sealing layer.
