Nucleation is one of the primary contributions to the microstructure of glass-ceramics.
However, the nucleation process within glass-ceramics is not understood across all glass …

Vitrification from the molten state hinges on averting crystallization during the cooling path.
On the other hand, critical natural processes, such as the formation of snow and igneous …

Viscosity is one of the most important properties of disordered matter. The temperature-
dependence of viscosity is used to adjust process variables for glass-making, from melting to …

Predicting the liquid compositions that will vitrify at experimentally accessible quench rates
remains one of the grand challenges in the field of condensed matter physics. This glass …

Glass‐forming ability (GFA) is a measure of the easiness to vitrify a given substance.
Theoretically, it is possible to make a glass from any liquid provided it is quenched from its …

Can any liquid be cooled down below its melting point to an isentropic (Kauzmann)
temperature without vitrifying or crystallizing? This long-standing question concerning the …

Ideas proposed at the beginning of the 20th century to describe the temperature
dependence of crystal growth rates have become accepted as the “standard model.” …

No viscosity change in the vicinity of the crystal/melt interface is to be expected for crystal
growth in silicate systems at constant temperature in a deeply undercooled isochemical …

The influence of Fe 2 O 3 addition to the nucleation process of Cr 2 O 3-containing CaO-
MgO-Al 2 O 3-SiO 2 (CAMS) based glass ceramic was investigated by Raman spectroscopy …

Using a thermodynamic database approach (CALPHAD), thermodynamic parameters of
crystal growth of 31 stoichiometric and non-stoichiometric glasses are calculated. Together …
