Abstract

Silicate based glass compositions with phosphorus compounds included in the composition as spectral modifiers to impart desirable color and improved energy absorbance properties are disclosed. The phosphorus compound is generally a metal phosphide which is added to the batch glass composition in amounts greater than 0.05 weight percent prior to melting. The composition and method result in a finished glass suitable for use in architectural and automotive glazings.
