General comment Sodium silicate solution, also known as Waterglass, is a highly versatile and inorganic chemical. It is used as a spin-on adhesive layer to bond glass to glass or silicon oxide covered silicon wafers to one another. It is a low temperature bonding technique. It is prepared by the combination of soda ash and sand at a very high temperature. It is often supplied as a colorless, viscous water solution displaying little tack and can withstand temperatures of up to 1100 °C.
