In the present communication, a study was made of the compositional variation of physical properties: average coordination number (<r>), average number of constraints (Ncon), number of lone-pair electrons (L), mean bond energy (<E>), cohesive energy (CE), average heat of atomization (Hs), glass transition temperature (Tg), density (ρ) and theoretical energy gap (Eg) for Te15(Se100-xBix)85 (x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5at%) glassy alloys. The mean bond energy and the cohesive energy have been calculated using the chemical bond approach (CBA). The glass transition temperature was calculated using the Tichy-Ticha approach, and has been found to increase with Bi content. The mean bond energy is found to be proportional to the glass transition temperature and the average coordination number. It has been found that the average coordination number, average number of constraints, mean bond energy and density increase, whereas the cohesive energy, average heat of atomization and theoretical energy gap decrease with increasing Bi content in Se-Te alloys.

The diffusion coefficient in the metallic glass-forming systems such as Pd-Cu-Ni-P exhibits a marked deviation from the Stokes-Einstein (SE) relation in the proximity of the glass transition temperature. Such a deviation is characterized by the fractional exponent p of the modified SE expression. For the material Pd43Cu27Ni10P20, it has been reported that it takes the value p = 0.75. In this work, it is shown that the value of p is highly correlated with the ratio ED / ENB, where ED and ENB are the activation energies for diffusion coefficient D and cooperativity NB defined by the Bond Strength-Coordination Number Fluctuation (BSCNF) model. The present paper reports that for the metallic glass-forming melt Pd43Cu27Ni10P20, the fractional exponent p can be calculated accurately within the framework of the BSCNF model.

The effect of coordination number on glass properties was investigated by measuring the glass forming region, glass transition temperature, dilatometric softening temperature, density and chemical durability of the glasses. The coordination number of B and Zn in the system 20BaO-xZnO-(80-x) B2O3 glasses (x=0~40mol%) was measured by IR, respectively. No change in the coordination number (CN) of B was revealed, and the coordination of Zn was 4 at ZnO 10mol%, which increased the properties of glasses. On the other hand, the coordination number (CN) of B and Zn changed from CN4 to CN3, CN4 to CN6 over ZnO 20 and 10mol% respectively, which decreased the properties of glasses.

We utilized self-assembly of miscible polymer blends/CNTs composites to obtain ultralow electrical percolation threshold, with different results of both miscibility and glass transition temperature variations from antecedent works.

Cu5Se75In10M10 (M = Ge, Te) bulk chalcogenide glasses have been prepared by melt quench technique. XRD technique has been used for structural characterization. Absence of peaks confirms the amorphous nature of the studied composites. Some important physical parameters have been investigated theoretically i.e., average coordination number, constraints, density, molar volume, cohesive energy, electro negativity, heat of atomization, bond energy etc. Tichy-Ticha and Lankhorst approach has also been used to study the glass transition temperature Tg. Theoretical analysis of composition shows that there is significant change in the structure of the glass due to rigidity percolation.
