Slowing Down

This paper reports significantly slowed down of the rotations of silyl moieties along with the deformation in the saccharide ring in 1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-(trimethylsilyl)-d-glucopyranose (S-GLU) in the vicinity of the glass transition temperature.

Second Order Phase Transition

<p>Glass transition was primarily considered to be not phase transition; however, it has similarity to the second-order phase transition. Recent single-molecule spectroscopy developments have prompted re-investigating glass transition at the microscopic scale, revealing that glass transition includes phenomena similar to second-order phase transition. They are characterized by microscopic collective polymer motion and discontinuous changes in temperature dependent relaxation times, later of which is similar to critical slowing down, within a temperature window that includes the polymer calorimetric glass transition temperature. Considering that collective motion and critical slowing down are accompaniments to critical phenomena, second-order phase transition behavior was identified in polymer glass transition.</p>
