Schott company

In September 1952, when I enrolled at the university, the situation for undergraduates was difficult indeed. Since the headquarters and most of the factories of the Zeiss and Schott companies were located at Jena, the city had been heavily bombed during the war. Despite some early efforts by the... 

The measurements of s)mchronous angles of modes in produced waveguides were performed using a prism coupler [33] made of PSK-3 glass (of Schott company). They were carried out for a wavelength A = 677 run and the TE and TM polarization. The effective refractive indices of the modes calculated on their basis have the uncertainty of measurement at the level of AN = 0.0002.

The Belgian company Alfa Laval in association with Schott Engineering (Germany) has developed processes similar to Cultor using the porous glass bead carrier Siran (made by Schott Engineering).

Zsigmondy needed new types of optical instruments for his experiments. At the Schott laboratory, he had a hand in designing and constructing such instrumentation. Siedentopf joined the laboratory in 1899, and there he and Zsigmondy created the ultramicroscope. The Carl Zeiss Company, also in Jena, manufactured and sold the instruments.

Otto Schott (1851-1935), Ernst Abbe (1840-1905), Carl Zeiss, and Roderick Zeiss established the Glastechnisches Laboratorium Schott und Genossen, which later became the Jenaer Glaswerk Schott und Gen and in 1952 the Schott Glaswerke. This company is now the leading European glass company.

Recently, the Schott Corporation has set up a small plant in Germany that is producing glass matrix composite components for industrial applications. Their first implementation has heen machine components for handling hot glass, and the company is heginning to expand its market. 

For the determination of gas production resulting from the biodegradation of the test materials, two different test systems each containing 12 reaction vessels were set up. The volumetric test system of TUHH (Fig 1) and a manometric test system (Sensomat, Fig 2) of the company Aqualytic, 63201 Langen, Germany, were applied as test systems. The test vessels used were modified SOO ml glass flasks (Schott). 

Furthermore, pH-values were measured by a pH-meter (type CG 818, Schott Equipment, Hofheim, Germany). The measurements were taken from a total of 6 different viscoelastic vials per product, which were supplied, mostly free of charge, by the participating companies for the purpose of this trial. 

The scientifically founded development of new products and technical processes has traditionally been of vital importance at Schott and has always been performed on a scale determined by the prospects for application of our special glasses. The scale has increased enormously since the reconstruction of the Schott Glaswerke in Mainz. The range of expert knowledge required for that could never have been supplied by Schott alone. It is also a tradition in our company to cultivate collaboration with customers, universities, and research institutes. Publications in numerous technical journals, which since 1969 we have edited to a regular timeplan as Forschungsberichte - research reports - formed the basis of this cooperation. They contain up-to-date information on various topics for the expert but are not suited as survey material for those whose standpoint is more remote. 

The results documented in the volumes of the Schott Series are of course oriented to the tasks and targets of a company. We believe it will become quite clear that here readers can nevertheless - or rather for that reason -find demanding challenges for applied research, the development of process engineering, and the characterization of measurement practice. Besides realizability, the profitability of solutions to customers problems always plays a decisive role. 

Due to the breadth and complexity of the field in which Schott is active, many volumes are needed to describe the company s research and development results. Otherwise it would be impossible to do full justice to the results of fundamental research work and technological development needed for product development. Furthermore, it is necessary to give an appropriate description of the methods of measurement and analysis needed for the development and manufacture of new products.
