Abstract The present work, as one of the first scientific works, deals with the modification of the glass surface induced by DCSBD plasma discharge to increase the adhesion of decorative gold layers on glass products. In the study of such a modification, it was necessary to monitor the effectiveness of the modification of the glass surface, and subsequently it was necessary to test the resistance of the deposited gold layers in tests performed directly in operation. In the present work, the adhesion of gold to DCSBD-modified glass surfaces by plasma discharge was uniquely evaluated by image analysis.

AbstractZeta potentials of SRL-131-29.8% TOS simulated nuclear waste glasses leached in D.I. water, Al, Ca, Mg, and Zn chloride solutions at 90°C were measured as a function of leaching time. For short term leaching, the adsorption of Ca, Mg, Zn and Al reverses the glass surface potential from negative to positive. Colloids were found to be stable in D.I. water and AICl3 solutions after leaching, presumably due to the electrostatic repulsion between the glass surface and similarly charged particles. Colloids were not found in Mg, Zn or Ca chloride solutions after leaching; instead, a relatively thick metasilicate surface layer was formed on glass surfaces leached in these solutions. The concentration of Si in solution is reduced by the formation of these surface layers.


CONCLUSION While cleaned silica-based glass surfaces have similar surface compositions, their susceptibility to strongly adsorbing organic contaminant s depends strongly on the glass composition and the cleaning procedure. For the three glass species exam-ined: silica, aluminoborosilicate, and sodalime glass , the glass surfaces behave similarly after chromic acid cleaning. They show significant differences in their properties followin g a dry cleaning procedure, such as pyrolysis or UV/ozone cleaning. The cleaned silica surfaces show a high susceptibility to adsorbing or-ganic contamination following pyrolysis cleaning, while the pyrolyzed sodalime glass appears to be virtually immune to strongly adsorbing organic molecules. Py-rolyzed aluminoborosilicate glass shows an intermediate susceptibility to adsorb-ing organic contaminants. The chromic acid cleaned glass surfaces all show an in-termediate susceptibility to contamination by adsorbed organic molecules. Thus, it may be an oversimplification to consider a clean glass surface as a high energy substrate that is bound to attract ambient organic contamination. The wettability behavior of the cleaned glass surfaces showed features associ-ated with their exposed chemical functions. The non-dispersive interaction energy between glass and water as a function of pH showed evidence of charging of the surface silanol groups. The point of zero charge for these surface chemical func-tions was observed at pH 3. An estimate of the non-dispersive interaction energy between glass and water at the point of zero charge enables a reasonable estima-tion of the density of surface silanol groups on the cleaned glass. The trends ob-served for the surface charge as a function of pH correlate with the observed sus-ceptibility for adsorbing organic contamination to the cleaned glass surfaces. Charge-adsorbed surfactant monolayers indicated a negative surface charge on the cleaned glass, as expected for silica-based glass surfaces at neutral pH. The wettability of grafted self-assembled octadecylsilane monolayers indicated high quality coatings on the cleaned glass surfaces. The coating quality was identical for all three glass species following chromic acid cleaning. The UV/ozone cleaned glass surfaces showed the highest coating quality on the silica surface, followed by the aluminoborosilicate surface and the sodalime glass surface. The trends in coating quality for all chromic acid cleaned surfaces and UV/ozone cleaned surfaces correlate with those seen for susceptibility to organic contamina-tion of the cleaned glass surfaces exposed to unpurified liquid octane.

The role of microtubules in the spreading of cells from the liver-derived IAR2 rat cell line was studied. Cells in the control medium seeded on a flat isotropic glass surface rapidly spread to form discoid shapes. Spreading in colcemid-containing medium was disorganized and delayed; partial reversal of spreading was observed. Nevertheless, even in the presence of colcemid the cells finally spread to discoid flattened shapes. IAR2 cells in medium without colcemid spread not to discoid but to elongated shapes under three different sets of conditions: (1) when the cells were forced to spread on narrow strips of adhesive glass surface between two non-adhesive lipid films; (2) when the cells spread on the poorly adhesive surface of poly(HEMA)-covered glass; (3) when the cells spread on the usual glass surfaces in medium containing cytochalasin D. Addition of colcemid to the media reversed the polarized spreading under the first two conditions; colcemid did not reverse the formation of the elongated cell shape acquired by the cells spreading in cytochalasin-containing medium. Effects of microtubule-destroying drugs on the spreading of epithelial and fibroblast cells are compared and discussed. It is suggested that microtubules are essential for the stabilization of the spread state of those attached cytoplasmic processes and lamellae that do not have numerous and stable-cell substratum contacts, e.g. the processes formed at the early stages of spreading or the elongated processes of polarized cells. Possibly, microtubules stabilize the non-contracted state of the actin cytoskeleton in these processes.

An outline is given of the various methods for the application of luminescent screens, and their relative merits. Most widespread in use are methods that utilize a liquid binder that enters into a chemical reaction with the glass surface. In other cases, the powder is partially imbedded in the glass surface by a sintering process. The physical characteristics of the luminescent screen are adversely affected by both of these methods. A process based on the activation of the glass surface by a deposit of sulphur is described. The sulphur coating picks up the luminescent powder in a uniform layer when it is brought into contact with the powder. After being removed by means of a moderate heat treatment, it leaves the screen firmly adhering to the glass surface. Possible mechanisms for the process are briefly discussed.

Residual stresses significantly influence the strength and lifetime of the glass products, therefore their qualification and quantification during production is basically important for evaluating their probable reliability in application. The current paper aims at introducing a novel procedure of the suggested automatic glass quality test based on instrumented scratch test completed with computer aided image analysis. A special emphasis is put on the problem of limited reproducibility and reliability of the image processing, arisen in the first stage of the research work. The latest results consisting in the development of a new algorithm, providing a more reliable evaluation of the test data will be described.

In the paper a new surface refining technology which uses nano-particles to improve the soda – lime – silica glass surfaces is presented. The SEM-EDS (Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectrometry) analysis was carried out to determine modification of the glass surface. A very thin modification layer was observed on the glass surface. The surface modification leads to an improvement of physical and chemical properties of the investigated glass.

Residual stresses of production origin superimposed with the operational stresses influences the reliability of glass products. The most widely used procedures for their detection and qualification are optical methods that can not be utilized for testing of non-transparent glasses. A recently developed glass qualifying procedure based on scratch test with integrated image processing is applicable for evaluating the residual stresses in surface of both the transparent and non-transparent glasses. The reliability of the suggested test method is greatly dependent on the information content provided by the involved image analysis procedure. The current paper introduces the principle, and methodology of the test method, furthermore presents the latest results gained by applying an improved algorithm of the image processing.

The nanoscale behavior of high-temperature flow deformation for silicate-based oxide glass ultrathin films was characterized with focus on forming a nano-patterned glass surface. The oxide glass thin films were deposited at room temperature by pulsed laser deposition onto the ultrasmooth sapphire substrates with 0.2-nm-high atomic steps. It was found from atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements that the silicate ultrathin films (about 3 nm thick) started to deform at a temperature 50 °C lower than the glass transition point of the bulk glass. The glass thin films annealed at high temperatures exhibited the nano-stepped surface structure reflecting the sapphire substrate surface. By scanning the AFM tip on the as-deposited glass film in a contact mode and then thermal annealing the film, we could pattern the nano-stepped glass surface at a nanoscale.
