Improving Outcomes of HST Services

The ISO Standard can be fully reviewed here

As reported in USGlass (May 14, 2020) AGNORA recently has been accredited for the new heat soak testing (HST) standard ISO 20657, which aims to mitigate glass breakage caused by Nickel Sulfide (NiS) inclusions. The new standard is an evolution of the EN14179-1:2005 standard following scientific publications, which proved a slightly lower HST temperature is effective for testing. The EN14179 is now under revision.
