A bstract Equations are given for the calculation of changes of density, refractive index, and other optical constants produced by the addition of a known relative weight of a given component to a base glass. Corresponding equations for the substitution of one component for another are also given. Values are computed and listed for the initial fractional rate of change of refractive index ( n D ) when various components are added to ( a ) pure SiO 2 and ( b ) a sodium silicate glass containing 50% of Na 2 O by weight.
