In PyGGi (free version): Out of the eight available options, a maximum of three components can be added simultaneously for entering a glass composition. Once the components are entered, the preferable range of values for each of these components need to be provided. Note that the range should be within 10%. For example, sodium silicate glass, SiO2 can range from 80 to 90 mol %, and Na2O can range from 10 to 20 mol %. PyGGi will compute all the glass compositions possible within the range and provide the chosen properties' values. In PyGGipro (paid version): There is no limitation on the number of oxide components per glass composition. However, a maximum of six oxide components only can be chosen for input in the form of a range. For glasses with more than six oxides components, the user needs to input the specific composition of interest. Alternatively, the user can select the relevant oxide components and download the CSV template. The user can then manually input as many glass compositions as required. This CSV file can then be imported to compute the properties of the specific glass compositions entered.
