The resistivities of selected vitreous t ernary lead silicates containing ions of g roups I , II, III, IV, and a lso the ions chromium, mangan ese, iron, cobalt, and nickel were meas ured in the range 200 0 to 500 0 C and at an applied direct-current fi eld of 525 volts per centimete r. In addition, the resis tivities of vitreous silica and of quartz, wit h op t ic ax is parallel and perpendicular to t he applied fi eld, were m eas ured over t he same te mperatu re range. The resu lting data a re given as log resistivity-composi tion isotherms for the alkalies and alkaline earths and as log resisti vity-temperat ure curves for the other ions. Correlations between resistivity and bonding energy and between frequency factor and heat of activation are presented. The resistivit ies of the al kali lead silicates were interpreted from the stan dpoint of t he activation energy prin ciple.
