Abstract

Over the years, several indigenous technologies have been developed by CGCRI to address the nation's needsin crucial sectors,particularly those where the material/technology is under embargo and high reliance on imports exists.Currently,CSIR-CGCRI is actively involved technology developmentfor the strategic sectors such as optical glass development (for ISRO), radiation shielding window glass (RSW), glass bid fornuclear waste immobilization and laser glass (for DAE), chalcogenide glasses for night vision camera (for DRDO)and high strength glass-ceramic armors (for DRDO/MoD).Further, glasses with multifunctional activities like thermally stable antibacterial bioactiveglasses,ferroelectric/anti-ferroelectric glass-ceramics for energy storage and phosphor in glass forLED applicationsare being explored. Sustainable value-added products (like foam glasses)are being developed by utilizing different types of glass wastesthrough bothconventionalmelting and microwave heatingtechniques. Thus, the research work aiming atthe development of awide domain of specialty glasses having specific applications in strategic, healthcare, electronics and societal segments envisages a direction towards “Atmanirbhar Bharat”.
