AbstractPhosphate glasses are novel amorphous biomaterials due to their fully resorbable characteristics, with controllable degradation profiles. In this study, phosphate glasses containing titanium and/or iron were identified to exhibit sufficiently matched thermal properties (glass transition temperature, thermal expansion coefficient and viscosity) which enabled successful co-extrusion of glass billets to form a core/clad preform. The cladding composition for the core/clad preforms were also reversed. Fe clad and Ti clad fibres were successfully drawn with an average diameter of between 30~50 μm. The average cladding annular thickness was estimated to be less than 2 μm. Annealed core/clad fibres were degraded in PBS for a period of 27 days. The strength of the Fe clad fibres appeared to increase from 303 ± 73 MPa to 386 ± 45 MPa after nearly 2 weeks in the dissolution medium (phosphate buffered solution) before decreasing by day 27. The strength of the Ti clad fibres revealed an increase from 236 ± 53 MPa to 295 ± 61 MPa when compared at week 3. The tensile modulus measured for both core/clad fibres ranged between 51 GPa to 60 GPa. During the dissolution study, Fe clad fibres showed a peeling mechanism compared to the Ti clad fibres.

Asymmetric 2-(4′-maleimido)phenyl-2-(4′-maleimidophenoxyl)phenylbutane (EBA-BMI) was successfully mixed with N, N′-(4,4′-diphenylmethane)bismaleimide (DDM-BMI) to prepare the matrix resins for high-temperature fiber-reinforced polymeric composites (glass transition temperature ( Tg) > 400°C). Experimental results imply that DDM-BMI/EBA-BMI (DE-BMIs) show excellent melting performance with wide processing temperature window and low molten viscosity, suggesting excellent compatibility between DDM-BMI and EBA-BMI. For example, the viscosity of DE-BMI41 (DDM-BMI/EBA-BMI, 4/1) is about 474–51 mPa·s in the temperature range of 148–180 °C. In addition, cured DE-BMIs represent remarkable thermal properties with Tg over 400°C, under which the storage modulus could still reach as high as 3.2 GPa. Meanwhile, the coefficient of thermal expansion of these cured resins is about 36–40 ppm °C−1 at 50–250°C, and the 5% weight loss temperature is about 470°C.

Alkali oxides were added to glass frit in order to lower the firing temperature of dental porcelain, and the effects of Li2O and B2O3 on the thermal properties and chemical solubility of low-fusing dental porcelain were investigated. The glass transition temperature(Tg) and softening temperature(Ts) of glass frits were decreased remarkably by adding Li2O, but the coefficient of thermal expansion(CTE) was increased with Li2O. In the case of adding B2O3, the thermal properties were unchanged. Tg of B0L4, B2L4 and B4L4 specimens were lower than 500°C and Ts were lower than 550°C. The chemical solubility of prepared low-fusing dental porcelain with these glass frits were 37.3, 43.9, and 49.2µg·cm-2 respectively. The chemical solubility was increased by adding Li2O and B2O3, but all the results were below 100µg·cm-2 and satisfactory to ISO Standards. Further, the chemical solubility of the commercial low-fusing dental porcelains were 52.6µg·cm-2 for Ceramco Finesse(Clear), 70.8µg·cm-2 for Duceram-LFC(TC) and that of conventional dental porcelain, CeraMax(T-C), was 34.8µg·cm-2.

I propose a model of a material that exhibits negative thermal expansion (NTE) properties and criteria for the occurrence of linear and volumetric NTE. I derived the criteria for an arbitrary force between rigid units in the material. These criteria are also discussed specifically for the Lennard–Jones (6–12) potential and in more detail for metal–organic framework (MOF) materials comprising rigid units connected by organic linkers. Qualitatively, the model predictions can explain some observed results. Surprisingly, the model can produce equations for the transition temperature from NTE to positive thermal expansion (PTE), [Formula: see text] K, which is exactly the same as the temperature at which the glass transition begins to occur in most polymers, i.e., [Formula: see text] K.

The primary pyroelectric transition temperature of wurtzite nitrides (AlN, GaN and InN) has been explored theoretically from their thermal properties. The spontaneous and piezoelectric polarization modifies the thermal conductivity of nitrides. The thermal conductivity [Formula: see text] as a function of temperature including and excluding the polarization mechanism predicts a transition temperature [Formula: see text] between primary and secondary pyroelectric effects. Below [Formula: see text], thermal conductivity including polarization field [Formula: see text] is lesser than thermal conductivity excluding polarization field [Formula: see text]. This is due to negative thermal expansion in binary nitrides below [Formula: see text]; however, above [Formula: see text], [Formula: see text]. [Formula: see text] is significantly contributed by piezoelectric polarization above [Formula: see text] due to thermal expansion which is the reason for the secondary pyroelectric effect. The transition temperature [Formula: see text] for AlN, GaN and InN has been predicted as 100 K, 70 K and 60 K, respectively, which fit well with the prior literature studies. This report proposes that thermal properties’ study can reveal the role of acoustic phonons in pyroelectricity.

Porcelain-fused-to-metal restorations are fired several hundred degrees above the glass-transition temperature and cooled rapidly through the glass-transition temperature range. Thermal expansion data from room temperature to above the glass-transition temperature range are important for the thermal expansion of the porcelain to be matched to the alloy. The effect of heating rate during measurement of thermal expansion was determined for NBS SRM 710 glass and four commercial opaque and body porcelain products. Thermal expansion data were obtained at heating rates of from 3 to 30°C/min after the porcelain was cooled at the same rate. By use of the Moynihan equation (where Tg systematically increases in temperature with an increase in cooling/heating rate), the glass-transition temperatures (Tg) derived from these data were shown to be related to the heating rate.

Oxide glasses having lower glass transition temperature are widely used in electric devices. The oxide glasses usually contain lead oxide. Recently, lead oxide glasses have been replaced with lead-free oxide glasses because of the environmental pollution. We investigated the thermal properties and the glass formation region in the Bi2O3-B2O3-ZnO ternary system. The results showed that the ratio of Tg/Tl of the bismate glasses is around 0.55, which is lower than the value of ratio 0.67, the two-third rule (Tg/ Tl=2/3)
