Transient Nucleation in Glasses

چکیده

r(NJ Nucleation rates in condensed systems are frequently not at their steady state values. Such time dependent (or transient) nucleation is most clearly observed in devitrification studies of metallic and silicate glasses. The origin of transient nucleation and its role in the formation and stability of desired phases and microstructures are discussed. Numerical models of nucleation in isothermal and nonisothermal situations, based on the coupled differential equations describing cluster evolution within the classical theory, are presented. The importance of transient nucleation in glass formation and crystallization is discussed.

Igniting homogeneous nucleation.

Transient homogeneous nucleation is studied in the limit of large critical sizes. Starting from pure monomers, three eras of transient nucleation are characterized in the classic Becker-Döring kinetic equations with two different models of discrete diffusivity: the classic Turnbull-Fisher formula and an expression describing thermally driven growth of the nucleus. The latter diffusivity yields ...

Recent studies of internal and surface nucleation in silicate glasses

This article reviews recent ­ ndings on internal and surface nucleation in silicate glasses. The internal homogeneous nucleation rates sharply decrease and the induction times increase with the Tg=TL ratio (Tg is the glass-transition temperature and TL is the liquidus temperature). Only systems that have Tg=TL < 0:58 display measurable internal nucleation rates on a laboratory time-scale. Numer...

Surface and volume nucleation and growth in TiO2±cordierite glasses

Systematic measurements and analyses of surface nucleation and growth of l-cordierite on diamond-polished surfaces and on fractured surfaces of cordierite glasses containing 0.3, 1.2, 3.4, 6.2 and 8.1 wt% TiO2 were carried out. All the glasses exhibit surface nucleation, however, the glass having 8.1 wt% TiO2 also exhibits volume nucleation. The maximum surface nucleation rate is located at a t...

Determination of the Nucleation and Crystallization Parameters for Making Nanoporous Titanium Phosphate Glass-ceramics

Nanoporous glass-ceramics were prepared with composition 45CaO-25TiO2-35P2O5 (mol%). Two molar percent of Na2O was added as a flux to the composition. With the aforementioned composition, glass melted and crystallized into glass-ceramics containing β-Ca3(PO4)2 and CaTi4(PO4)6 as the main phases. The differential thermal analysis (DTA) was conducted to determine the suitable temperatures f...
