Download or read book Nucleation and Crystallization of Glasses and Glass Ceramics written by Wolfram Höland and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2017-07-21 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The E-book "Nucleation and Crystallization of Glasses and Glass-Ceramics" highlights historic perspectives and current research in the field of glass-ceramic technology. Glass-ceramic technology is promising to provide us with materials of high strength, high toughness, unique electrical/electronic or magnetic properties, exceptional optical or unusual thermal or chemical properties. The greater diversity of microstructure-property arrangements and processing routes over glasses and ceramics are responsible that glass-ceramics are the preferred choice of materials in many technical, consumer, optical, medical/dental, electrical/electronic, and architectural fields. This includes increasing uses of glass-ceramic materials for environment and energy applications in the last decades. The positive development of glass-ceramic technology has become true in particular due to the pioneering spirit, resourcefulness, and courage of researchers of the first generation. Extraordinary and, therefore, to be distinguished is the work of the glass-ceramic inventor S. Donald Stookey to whom this Research Topic is dedicated. The authors, all experts in the field of glass-ceramics and based in industry, academia and governmental institutions, contributed to this E-book under the guidance of the Technical Committee 07 "Crystallization and Glass-Ceramics" of the International Commission on Glass (ICG).

Book Lithium Disilicate Glass Ceramics Containing Lithium Tantalate As A Secondary Phase

Download or read book Lithium Disilicate Glass Ceramics Containing Lithium Tantalate As A Secondary Phase written by Anthony De Ceanne and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lithium disilicate (LD) glass-ceramics were discovered in the 1950s, and the evolution of the main target phase of these materials is well-known. However, the LD system is still an area of active research, especially when a secondary phase is introduced since the phase evolution of secondary phases is not currently understood. The first stage of the present work examines microstructural effects in a single parent composition of a LD system that contains lithium tantalate (LT) as a secondary phase. The phase assemblage evolution is studied via x-ray diffraction and the crystal morphology of the system is imaged via scanning electron microscopy. It is found that the nucleation of the precursor lithium metasilicate phase is coupled to both the nucleation of both LD and LT, and from this work, a reaction equation to describe these relationships is proposed: 2(Li2SiO3) + Ta2O5  Li2Si2O5 + 2(LiTaO3). A large data set is analyzed to investigate the relationship between heat treatments and several key properties, namely optical and mechanical properties, specifically the L*a*b* color coordinates and the Knoop hardness (HK). This is the first known systematic study of Knoop hardness for a LD glass-ceramic. It is found that the L* values increase once the growth rates of LD and LT increase and that HK is higher for microstructures that were produced via a high nucleation temperature and middle to high growth temperature. The experimental data are used to train several machine learning models to predict color coordinates and HK values. These first ever machine learning models for glass-ceramic materials successfully predict the color and hardness trends of the materials and also predict values for new microstructures that are not examined experimentally. Linear regression models provide physical insight into the HK results, showing that the hardest samples are the result of microstructures that contain a high amount of small crystals, especially LD and LT crystals. To build off this work, the second stage of the present study designed novel compositions to examine the effect of the ratio of [SiO2] to [Li2O] on the phase assemblage, microstructure, and corresponding properties of this LD system that contained LT as a secondary phase. This study was aimed at validating or disproving the proposed reaction equation from the first stage. The phase assemblage data are in support of the proposed reaction equation because LT content increased, and LD content decreased in the material as the [SiO2]/[Li2O] decreased. Lastly, the study provides a glimpse into the radiopacity values of each composition, finding that radiopacity increases as more Ta2O5 is introduced into the composition.

Book Introduction to Glass Science and Technology

Download or read book Introduction to Glass Science and Technology written by James E Shelby and published by Royal Society of Chemistry. This book was released on 2015-11-06 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a concise and inexpensive introduction for an undergraduate course in glass science and technology. The level of the book has deliberately been maintained at the introductory level to avoid confusion of the student by inclusion of more advanced material, and is unique in that its text is limited to the amount suitable for a one term course for students in materials science, ceramics or inorganic chemistry. The contents cover the fundamental topics of importance in glass science and technology, including glass formation, crystallization, phase separation and structure of glasses. Additional chapters discuss the most important properties of glasses, including discussion of physical, optical, electrical, chemical and mechanical properties. A final chapter provides an introduction to a number of methods used to form technical glasses, including glass sheet, bottles, insulation fibre, optical fibres and other common commercial products. In addition, the book contains discussion of the effects of phase separation and crystallization on the properties of glasses, which is neglected in other texts. Although intended primarily as a textbook, Introduction to Glass Science and Technology will also be invaluable to the engineer or scientist who desires more knowledge regarding the formation, properties and production of glass.

Book Optical Properties Of CAD CAM Lithium Disilicate Glass Ceramic In Different Firing Temperatures And Thicknesses

Download or read book Optical Properties Of CAD CAM Lithium Disilicate Glass Ceramic In Different Firing Temperatures And Thicknesses written by Nasser Alqahtani and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Background: With the emerging of digital dentistry, IPS e.max® CAD lithium disilicate (LD) glass-ceramic material has become one of the most popular esthetic restorative materials in digital assisted dental esthetic restoration. The mechanical and optical properties of this material have been investigated in several studies. However, there is a lack of information and consensus regarding the optical properties of IPS e.max® LD glass-ceramic materials. Objectives: 1) To investigate the optical properties as translucency parameters (TP), Contrast ratio (CR), light transmissions (Lt) and color changes (CC) between high-translucent (HT) and low-translucent (LT) IPS e.max® CAD LD glass-ceramic materials with different crystalline phases and thickness in different firing stages. 2) To investigate the optical properties as TP, CR, Lt and CC of each translucent (HT and LT) IPS e.max® CAD LD glass-ceramic materials with different crystalline phases and thickness in different firing stages. 3) To determine the mathematical relationships of thicknesses of IPS e.max® CAD LD glass-ceramics materials with TP and Lt. Materials and methods: The total of 120 of shade A2 IPS max CAD samples (HT and LT) were prepared into square shape (15.25 mm X 15.25 mm) and were divided into two main groups according to the material translucency (HT and LT) (n=60). Each main group was further divided into 5 sub-groups according to the thickness (1.00, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, and 2.00 mm) (n=12). Each thickness group was assigned into three groups based on different crystallization (firing) temperatures (750, 820 °C in single stage heating schedule with 1 second and 10 second holding times, respectively, and 840 °C with two-stage heating schedule (RECOM) (820°C, 840 °C with 10 second and 7 min holding time, respectively) as recommended by manufacturer (n=4). CIEL*a*b*, TP, CR, and Lt were measured and calculated for all samples. Statistical analysis: The effects of the test results were evaluated using 3-way ANOVA with factors for Translucency (HT and LT), Firing Temperature (750, 850, and RECOM) and Thickness (1, 1.25, 1.5, 1.75, and 2), as well as all two-way and three-way interactions among the factors. Pair-wise comparisons were made using Least Significant Differences to control the overall significance level at 5%. Results: The mean irradiance and TP for both HT and LT decrease as the thickness of the samples increases from 1 to 2mm with significant difference between the thickness groups within each material translucency groups (HT and LT) and between both HT and LT. The coefficients of absorption (c) of the two materials were calculated. The effective incidence irradiance when material thickness approaches zero (Ie) was also calculated. There is an unexpected spectral peak shift as the thickness of the samples increases. There is no statistically significant difference in Ie at 750 ̊C and 820 ̊C between the HT and LT. However, there is a statistically significant higher Ie in HT at the recommended firing temperature as expected. Coefficients of translucency parameter (p) of the materials in various firing temperature were defined and the TP of the material as the thickness approaches zero were calculated (TP0). The TP of the materials is directly correlated to the mean irradiance passing through the samples. There is no statistically significant difference in the TP0 and Ie of the HT and LT groups at the recommended firing temperature. Conclusion: In this project we developed modified Beer-Lambert law to describe the parameters governing the effect of thickness on light transmission in dental ceramic material. We also applied the same equation to describe the translucency parameter. The parameters defined in these equations allow us to compare the optical property of dental ceramic material independent of the thickness of the samples.
