Abstract

A method of and arrangements for manufacturing glass bodies, in which the starting material for the glass body, being an anhydrous suspension having a microdispersed solids content, is used to form a porous green body which is subsequently purified and sintered, in which by separating the phases of an anhydrous suspension the green body is formed by means of electrophoresis on a deposition electrode whose shape corresponds to that of the glass body to be produced.
