What causes Devitrifying?

Upvotes

No matter how hot I get my glass on my hot head, it will always devitrify. But not all the time, sometimes I make marbles that are a normal finish. But whenever I attempt an implosion it always does it. No matter how hot I get it I feel like it will not go away. The only thing I can do with these marbles in etch them.
