Abstract
A colorless transparent colloid-former-containing glass that is convertible into a colorless transparent glass ceramic or a metal colloid-colored glass ceramic via respective heat treatments contains a combination of one or more metal colloid formers and one or more redox partners. The metal colloid formers are preferably oxides containing Au, Ag, As, Bi, Nb, Cu, Fe, Pd, Pt, Sb and/or Sn. The redox partners are preferably oxides containing As, Ce, Fe, Mn, Sb, Sn and/or W, with the proviso that the redox partner must be different from the metal colloid former. The glass advantageously contains from 0.97 to 1.9 wt. % SnO, 0.93 to 3.0 wt. % AsO, or 1.59 to 6.0 wt. % of SbOas redox partner.
