Kinetics of relaxation and crystallization of sodium metaphosphate glass
نویسنده
چکیده
Kinetics of structural relaxation and crystallization of NaPO3 glassforming melt is studied by means of thermal analyses. It is demonstrated that activation energy depends strongly on fictive temperature Tf. The dependence of the onset temperature To of the glass transition interval on the heating rate q + is investigated for samples that were previously cooled down at a rate q of about 850 K/min. The dimensionless fragility F is a measure of the dependence of the activation energy for spatial rearrangement on the changes of structure. According to the present results F is large for NaPO3 (i.e. phosphates are ‘fragile’ substances). 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Crystallization Kinetics and Characterization of Nanostructure Mica Glass-Ceramics with Optical Transparency
Transparent glasses in a system of Li2O-MgO-SiO2-Al2O3-Fchemical constituents were prepared by melt quenching method. In the fabrication of nanocrystal glass-ceramics, controlled nucleation and subsequent crystal growth were necessary to avoid loss of transparency. It was therefore important to understand thermal properties and crystallization kinetic...

Intensified environmental regulations have posed numerous challenges in the disposal of industrial wastes. The steel industry is one of the biggest production industries, with a considerable amount of daily wastes. Production of glass-ceramic from the steel industry waters is one of the proper solutions for this problem. In this study, the application utilization of different wastes (such as bl...
متن کاملCollective relaxation dynamics and crystallization kinetics of the amorphous Biclotymol antiseptic.
We employ dielectric spectroscopy to monitor the relaxation dynamics and crystallization kinetics of the Biclotymol antiseptic in its amorphous phase. The glass transition temperature of the material as determined by dielectric spectroscopy is Tg = 290 ± 1K. The primary (α) relaxation dynamics is observed to follow a Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann temperature dependence, with a kinetic fragility index m...

متن کاملDynamic light scattering in mixed alkali metaphosphate glass forming liquids.
We report the first ever photon correlation spectroscopy performed on single alkali and mixed alkali metaphosphate glasses at refractory temperatures above the glass transition. We find not only a significant decrease in the glass transition temperature but also a decrease in fragility for the mixed alkali composition as compared with the single akali glasses. We argue that structural relaxatio...
