Abstract
Inclusions of all kinds cannot be accepted in glass articles. Most of them are non-metallic stones, silicon spheres, cords, bubbles, and sometimes metallic inclusions. Identification of every appearance is not possible, since body structure and chemical composition do not compare. Laboratory experiments regarding the behaviour of the metals copper, brass and iron and their dissolution mechanisms in glass melts at technological relevant temperatures were analysed. Besides partial oxidation processes, sulphidic species were found. The experiments have been compared with thermodynamic calculations of several reaction mechanisms.
