Abstract

The present invention relates to a production method for a non-alkali glass, containing putting glass raw materials in a melting furnace, heating to a temperature of 1,350 to 1,750° C. to prepare a molten glass, and forming the molten glass into a sheet shape by float method, in which the heating in the melting furnace concurrently utilizes heating by combustion flame of burners and electrical heating of the molten glass by heating electrodes arranged so as to be dipped in the molten glass in the melting furnace, and in which when electrical resistivity at 1,350° C. of the molten glass is represented by Rg (Ωcm) and electrical resistivity at 1,350° C. of a refractory constituting the melting furnace is represented by Rb (Ωcm), the glass raw materials and the refractory are selected so as to achieve Rb>Rg.
