Neutron activation analysis, inductively coupled plasma-atomic emission spectrometry, flame atomic emission spectrometry and atomic absorption spectrometry have been employed to measure the absolute concentrations of 22 elements in a group of 49 colourless sheet, container and tableware glasses of refractive index 1.5177-1.5183. The elements determined were: Al, As, Ba, Ca, Ce, Co, Cr, Cs, Eu, Fe, K, La, Li, Mg, Mn, Na, Rb, Sc, Sr, Th, U and Zn.
