Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) is a powerful tool to address some of the most
challenging issues in glass science and technology, such as the nonequilibrium nature of …

Glass-ceramic foams were manufactured with waste glass bottle (85.7 wt%, 87.5 wt%, and
88.9 wt%) and bentonite. The raw materials were characterized by Energy-dispersive X-ray …

Nucleation is a crucial phase transformation process across all materials science. In the
context of crystal nucleation, accurate knowledge of the nucleation rate is essential for the …

Glass-ceramics foams (GCs foams) were manufactured with the aid of the replica method
and from cheap and sustainable raw materials (waste glass bottle, bentonite, and alumina) …

Transparent and translucent glass-ceramics (GCs) are found in an increasing number of
domestic and high-technology applications. In this paper, we evaluated and optimized the …

The state of polymerization in barium silicate glasses (xBaO·(1-x) SiO 2, 0.28≤ x≤ 0.45)
has been studied by both experiment (Raman, static and MAS 29 Si NMR spectroscopy) and …

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 …

It is known that barium disilicate (BS2) glass exhibits two prominent exothermic peaks
between the glass transition and melting temperatures in calorimetric experiments, however …

To the present date, the vast majority of fundamental studies on glass crystallization has
been carried out using stoichiometric compositions, whereas by far, the most common cases …

Abstract Barium disilicate (BaO. 2SiO 2= BS2) glass is one of the few stoichiometric glasses
that nucleates internally, homogeneously via thermal treatment. This system has been …
