Surface interaction of float glass with melts of potassium nitrate, silver nitrate and the mixture of copper sulphate and ochre was studied at 350 °C, 420 °C and 600 °C. The distribution of the ions in the surface layer indicates that the course of the interaction depends on tin content in the glass. This finding is significant with respect to surface treatment of Float glass by ion exchange, which will have a different course with the surface formed in contact with the tin bath, than with the opposite one.
