Continuous glass fibers can be formed from melts with a wide range of compositions and
viscosities. This chapter reviews pure silica fibers which are formed from highly viscous …

A new technique for the production of glass foams was developed, based on alkali activation
and gel casting. The alkali activation of soda-lime waste glass powders allowed for the …

The interaction between a laser beam and a material is determined by the wavelength
emitted by the laser, its fluence or energy density ε L and whether or not the laser emits …

Known statistical analysis methods are described in detail with the aim of develo** a new
and more accurate modelling approach for glass properties. It is shown that the combined …

Crystallization, mechanical properties, and workability are all important for the
commercialization and optimization of silicate glass compositions. However, the inter …

Under typical glass-processing conditions, crystals nucleate, grow, and dissolve in a
nonuniform temperature field in a melt subjected to deformation and flow. Using examples of …

In situ dynamic crystallization properties of industrial soda–lime–silica glasses at realistic
processing temperatures have not yet been explored. Hence, we collected in situ high …

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

The liquidus temperature plays an important role in the manufacture of fiberglass and glass
melts and in the design of new energy‐saving commercial compositions, which must be …

Spinel crystals precipitate in high-level waste glasses containing Fe, Cr, Ni, Mn, Zn, and Ru.
The liquidus temperature (TL) of spinel as the primary crystallization phase is a function of …
