Soda-lime-silicate glasses doped with different rare-earth oxides (La2O3, CeO2. Nd2O3, Gd2O3 and Y2O3) of 1 mol% content were prepared with the traditional melting-quenching methods. In order to reveal the effects of rare-earth elements on the behavior of soda-lime-silicate glass, the structure of soda-lime-silicate glasses doped with different rare-earth oxides were determined with Fourier transform infrared spectrometer using the KBr method, and viscosity of glass melts were measured by the rotating crucible viscometer, the melting temperature of the studied glasses were derived on the basis of Arrhenius Equation, moreover the density, bending strength and molar volume were measured and calculated. The effect of rare-earth dopants on the structure of soda-lime-silicate was analyzed by a shift of peak position and variation in the full-width at half-maximum. The effect of doping rare-earth oxides into glass on the viscosity, density and bending strength was interpreted by changing in structure of soda-lime-silicate glasses doped with rare-earth oxides.
