【Article overview】In each part of the sodium-calcium ampoule product, the magnitude and distribution of permanent stress induced by thermal treatment will be uneven. Consequently, this will affect the strength of the glass product and may even cause it to crack spontaneously due to stress concentration.

　　In each part of a soda-lime ampoule product, the magnitude and distribution of permanent stresses induced by thermal treatment will be uneven. Consequently, this can affect the strength of the glass product and even cause it to crack spontaneously due to stress concentrations. Annealing can eliminate harmful internal stresses in the glass and prevent the generation of new stresses. During annealing, the glass product is heated or held at the annealing temperature after hot forming to relieve and eliminate the original stresses, and then slowly cooled down below the strain temperature. Once the glass has fully entered the rigid state, the temperature difference between the inner and outer layers will only induce temporary stresses. So, what are the characteristics and applications of soda-lime ampoules?

　　Soda-lime ampoules are primarily composed of silicon dioxide, sodium oxide, and calcium oxide, with traces of iron impurities that give the product a greenish tint. They feature high hardness and excellent luster, and are also referred to as hard glass. These soda-lime ampoules exhibit good transparency, a soft texture, ease of processing, high refractive index and reflectivity, and superior chemical stability. They are widely used in the manufacture of optical instruments, high-end tableware, decorative items, and more. In addition, they are also employed in glass products for architectural and everyday use. The windows and doors we commonly use often utilize soda-lime glass or deeply processed derivatives of soda-lime glass. So, what is the current status of soda-lime ampoules?

　　As a traditional infusion product, the production process of conventional glass-bottle infusions is complex and suffers from several drawbacks: poor stability, easy generation of glass fragments, and a high risk of secondary contamination—all of which pose potential health hazards to humans. Moreover, conventional glass bottles are relatively heavy, leading to high transportation costs. During transit, even minor collisions can easily cause hidden micro-tears and drug contamination. These shortcomings have severely limited their sales in the region. Additionally, the manufacturing of conventional glass bottles involves significant environmental pollution and energy consumption during the firing process—so much so that it has become imperative to replace them with new sodium-calcium ampoules.
