Abstract

This study presents the influence of the chemical composition and fusing time of recycled bottle glass used as raw material in the mouth-blowing process. The design of experiments was proposed using the Taguchi method considering three factors: Na2CO3, Na2SO4 and fusing time of the glass inside the furnace, to analyze the effect on the diameter and amount of bubbles, density, hardness, viscosity and color. The formulation that presented the best results are 10% Na2CO3, 0.5% Na2SO4, and a fusing time of 6 hours.
