Dental Ceramics and Porcelains
"Die Abb. 3.1 gibt eine Übersicht, wie Keramiken nach ihrer chemischen Zusammensetzung differenziert werden. Dabei unterscheidet man zwei übergeordnete Gruppen: Die sog. Silikatkeramiken, die mehrphasig sind und einen hohen Glasanteil besitzen, und die einphasigen Oxidkeramiken, die wenn, dann nur einen geringen Anteil an Glasphase aufweisen."
From a text about dental porcelains and ceramics. There are almost no Google hits for "proportion of glass phase", and the few hits there are seem to be on foreign sites. No hits for any other possible combinations (e.g. glass phase portion, glass phase proportion, glassy phase proportion etc.). So, what DO English-speaking chemists say for "Anteil an Glasphase"? TIA for your help.

although \"amount of glassy phase\" gets hits and \"proportion...\" doesn\'t (strange), I would use proportion as your text is referring to relative amounts rather than absolute amounts.
einphasig = single-phase (but you already know that!)

Comment: "Thanks Jill. I'll go with that then, though it is rather strange how "proportion" gets fewer hits than "amount"! Appreciate your help."
