Abstract

The paper presents an overview of the centuries-old evolution of glass formulations, technologies, and applications throughout the history of civilization. We show the role of glass in works of art, in manufacture of housewares, as a transparent and translucent material in construction, in applications such as optics and laser technology, reinforcement for composites, and transparent armor.
