What material is used to make glass?
The earliest glass, formed when lightning struck a beach, was made of sand which was melted by the lightning. Today's glass is also made of sand, which is mixed with soda ash and lime to reduce costs. http://www.bigsiteofamazingfacts.com/how-is-glass-made The most familiar type of glass, used for centuries in windows and glass cups, is soda-lime glass, composed of about 75% silica (SiO2) plus Na2O, CaO, and several minor additives.
Differences between soda-lime glass and borosilicate glass?
Soda lime glass made from sand (silicon dioxide), soda (Sodium hydroxide or carbonate) and lime (limestone or other calcium source) The soda makes the sand melt about 2000F instead of about 3000F and the calcium makes it water resistant (sodium silicate is water glass and dissolves in water) Borosilicate is glass made from sand and boron compounds. The advantage is that it has a much lower coefficient of expansion (COE) which means it doesn't change size much when heated, which means it doesn't crack when heated. The disadvantage is that while it softens when heated in a torch, it doesn't flow much and needs to be heated hotter than soda lime. Boro is used for scientific glass apparatus and for art projects as well as cookware in the home. When you see someone working glass in a mall or arts showcase with a torch with a strong blue flame, they are working boro, in part because it can heat and cool without cracking with less care than is needed for soda lime.

No because Glass is quartz and maybe soda ash, depends on how it's made, so it will never be sand again. It can be recycled into new glass, or into silica and soda, but not back into sand.
