Many models have been created and attempted to describe the temperature-dependent viscosity of glass-forming liquids, which is the foundational feature to lay out the mechanism of obtaining desired glass properties. Most viscosity models were generated along with several impact factors. The complex compositions of commercial glasses raise challenges to settle these parameters. Usually, this issue will lead to unsatisfactory predicted results when fitted to a real viscosity profile. In fact, the introduction of the reliable viscosity-temperature data to viscosity equations is an effective approach to obtain the accurate parameters. In this paper, the Eyring viscosity equation, which is widely adopted for molecular and polymer liquids, was applied in this case to calculate the viscosity of glass materials. On the basis of the linear variation of molar volume with temperature during glass cooling, a modified temperature-dependent Eyring viscosity equation was derived with a distinguished mathematical expression. By means of combining high-temperature viscosity data and the glass transition temperature (Tg), nonlinear regression analysis was employed to obtain the accurate parameters of the equation. In addition, we have demonstrated that the different regression methods exert a great effect on the final prediction results. The viscosity of a series of glasses across a wide temperature range was accurately predicted via the optimal regression method, which was further used to verify the reliability of the modified Eyring equation.

Dense Product

Silicon nitride and silicon nitride based-ceramics are now well known for their potential as hightemperature structural materials, e.g. in engines. However, as is the case for many ceramics, in order to produce a dense product, sintering additives are utilized which allow liquid-phase sintering to occur; but upon cooling from the sintering temperature residual intergranular phases are formed which can be deleterious to high-temperature strength and oxidation resistance, especially if these phases are nonviscous glasses. Many oxide sintering additives have been utilized in processing attempts world-wide to produce dense creep resistant components using Si3N4 but the problem of controlling intergranular phases requires an understanding of the glass forming and subsequent glass-crystalline transformations that can occur at the grain boundaries.

Amorphous States

Phase-change erasable optical storage is based on the ability to switch a micron-sized region of a thin film between the crystalline and amorphous states using a diffraction-limited laser as a heat source. A bit of information can be represented as an amorphous spot on a crystalline background, and the two states can be optically identified by their different reflectivities. In a typical multilayer thin-film structure the active (storage) layer is sandwiched between one or more dielectric layers. The dielectric layers provide physical containment and act as a heat sink. A viable phase-change medium must be able to quench to the glassy phase after melting, and this requires proper tailoring of the thermal properties of the multilayer film. The present research studies one particular multilayer structure and shows the effect of an additional aluminum layer on the glass-forming ability.
