silica emissivity

I’m looking for the emissivity properties of the silica between 20°C and
2500°C
does someone know where I can find this values (on the web or on any
other place)?

thanks

    I have a source that references: Raznjevic, K., "Handbook of Thermodynamic
    Tables and Charts"; McGraw-Hill, NY, 1976
    and lists: Quartz, fused, rough at 293K (20 C) normal emissivity of 0.93 and
    Glass, smooth, 293K: normal emissivity 0.93.
    Hemispherical emissivity approx. equals 0.95*normal emissivity for smooth
    surfaces other than bright metals, and 0.98*normal emissivity for other
    rough surfaces.

    Another possible source is "CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics"

    Why does hot glass glow almost like almost black body?

    If somebody answers "Because it has a low reflectivity", then my next
    question would be "Why does not air glow?"

    And on a microscopic level: What transitions is the radiation due to?
