Influence of environment on the corrosion of glass–metal connections
In the article below "How to Prevent Glass Corrosion" by Paul F. Duffer (Glass Digest, November 15, 1986), Dr. Duffer explains the chemical mechanisms causing glass corrosion and the conditions under which it can exist. The article also covers interleaving systems and the restoration of lightly corroded glass. This article should be of particular interest to fabricators of mirrors or MSVD coated glass since these products are highly sensitive to even very light stains.
