Solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy offers an array of options for
exploring structural order of amorphous materials both over short (≲ 0.3 nm) and medium (≲ …

Materials such as ceramic matrix composites are developed for mechanical applications at
high temperature, but their cost remains a limitation. Consequently, the use of acid-based …

Immobilization of phosphate containing high level nuclear wastes within commonly used
silicate glasses is difficult due to restricted solubility of P2O5 within such melts and its …

Aluminosilicate glasses and melts are of great geological and technological importance.
