Antimony, usually added as a fining agent in a concentration range of about 0.2 to 2.0% Sb 2 O 3 , can be determined readily in many types of glass with a polarograph. Interfering elements are seldom encountered in common glass compositions, so chemical separations are not necessary. The mean difference between chemical and polarographic analyses for twenty‐one glasses covering soda‐lime, borosilicate, lead, and barium compositions is about 0.02% Sb 2 O 3 .
