  1. This summary of analyzed compositions as a function of time highlights compositional consistency during production, particularly at the ISG-1 and ISG-2 endpoint compositions. Transition glasses shown with approximate decimal designations. All elements analyzed by XRF, except for B2O3, which was determined by ICP-OES.
