Alloys of (Se100-xBix)90Te10 (x =0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3 at.%) were prepared by using a conventional melt-quench technique. The samples under investigation were characterized using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and differential analysis (DTA) at a heating rate of 10K/min. It was found, from the XRD studies, that the alloys were amorphous in nature. The glass transition temperatures of the alloys were found to increase with increasing bismuth content. This increase in the glass transition temperature was explained on the basis of a chemically ordered network model.

A novel nanocomposites of modified clay in a glassy epoxy were prepared using a direct melt intercalation technique. The contents of oganoclay were varied with 0, 1, 2, and 3 wt% and N-benzylpyrazinium hexafluoroantimonate (BPH) was used for curing of epoxy matrix as a cationic latent catalyst. Dynamic mechanical analysis (DMA) measurement was performed to examine the glass transition temperature of the nanocomposites. As a result, X-ray diffraction indicated the intercalation of the epoxy chains happening inside the gallery of clay. The nanocomposites showed a higher glass transition temperature and storage modulus than those of the pristine epoxy. The mechanical interfacial properties of the nanocomposites were also investigated and the improvement in tearing energy of 160% over pristine epoxy was obtained.

The glasses (80-x)TeO2·xV2O5·20MO (M=Sn, Bi, Ca, Na and K) had been examined as potential replacements for PbO-based glass frits with low firing temperature. The glasses with TeO2 0-44 mol%, and V2O5 39-82 mol% are not suitable for glass frit since they are easy to crystallize. The glasses with the content of the TeO2 54-74 mol%, and the V2O5 9-29 mol% were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, infrared spectra and fluidity evaluation experiments. The glasses possess appropriate fluidity and do not crystallize in the re-melting process at 723-753 K. The glass transition temperature of the glasses is at 544-578 K. The structure of the glasses is layer upon layer mainly connected by the structure units of [VO4] and [TeO3]. Other modifier ions locate mainly between the layers. The isolated V=O band from the VO5 bipyramids is not occurred in the vitreous structure of the glasses.

ABSTRACTThe heating-rate dependence of crystallization temperature, Tc, and the glass transition temperature, Tg, is studied from the view points of nucleation and fragmentation processes in disordered structures. Tc and Tg are expected to increase monotonically with heating rate. Such behaviors of Tc and Tg are classified into four characteristic regions with respect to the heating rate. Results are summarized in the Transient Phase Diagram where Tc and Tg are given as a function of heating rate. The scaling rule in the Transient Phase Diagram is given.

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.

AbstractIllitic clay from the locality of Liepa, Latvia, was investigated using dynamic thermomechanical analysis during the heating and cooling stages of firing. Differential thermal analysis, thermogravimetry, thermodilatometry, X-ray diffraction and porosimetry were also performed to shed light on the processes influencing the elastic properties of clay. The increase in the Young's modulus (YM) at low temperatures was linked to the release of physically bound water. Above 850°C, the bulk density and YM both increased as a consequence of sintering. The YM was more sensitive to the progress of sintering compared to dimension changes. The YM values continued to increase during cooling until the glass-transition temperature was reached. At this temperature, the first microcracks caused by the differences in thermal expansion coefficients of the present phases were expected to appear. The YM showed a sharp V-shaped minimum at the β → α transition of quartz, which was a result of alternation of the mechanical radial stresses around the quartz grains. When the transition of quartz was completed, the YM continued to decrease because microcracks were still being created at the boundaries between the different phases. The decrease of the YM during cooling from the glass-transition temperature down to room temperature was ~50% for all of the firing temperatures and isothermal periods applied.
