Book Silica Glass and Binary Silicate Glasses

Download or read book Silica Glass and Binary Silicate Glasses written by and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2012-12-02 with total page 686 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Physical Sciences Data, Volume 15: Handbook of Glass Data: Silica Glass and Binary Silicate Glasses, Part A presents information on the systems capable of forming glasses by cooling melts. This book provides data on the crystallization rates of glasses. Organized into six chapters, this volume begins with an overview of the melt properties for the glass-forming systems. This text then examines the notion of a component that is very significant for determining the number of components in each investigated glass. Other chapters consider the contents of several oxides of the same element but in different valent state as the reason to transfer a glass to the category of the increased number of components. This book discusses as well the analytical composition of glass. The final chapter deals with flotation method using tetrabromoethane and benzene mixture. This book is a valuable resource for glass specialists, chemists, engineers, scientists, and information science workers.

They present at a consistent level and in a self-consistent manner these industrial, technological, scientific, historical and cultural aspects. Addressing the most recent fundamental advances in glass science and technology, as well as rapidly developing topics such as extra-terrestrial or biogenic glasses, this important guide: Begins with industrial glassmaking Turns to glass structure and to physical, transport and chemical properties Deals with interactions with light, inorganic glass families and organically related glasses Considers a variety of environmental and energy issues And concludes with a long section on the history of glass as a material from Prehistory to modern glass science The Encyclopedia of Glass Science, Technology, History, and Culture has been written not only for glass scientists and engineers in academia and industry, but also for material scientists as well as for art and industry historians. It represents a must-have, comprehensive guide to the myriad aspects this truly outstanding state of matter.

Book Fiberglass and Glass Technology

Download or read book Fiberglass and Glass Technology written by Frederick T. Wallenberger and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-11-27 with total page 479 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fiberglass and Glass Technology: Energy-Friendly Compositions and Applications provides a detailed overview of fiber, float and container glass technology with special emphasis on energy- and environmentally-friendly compositions, applications and manufacturing practices which have recently become available and continue to emerge. Energy-friendly compositions are variants of incumbent fiberglass and glass compositions that are obtained by the reformulation of incumbent compositions to reduce the viscosity and thereby the energy demand. Environmentally-friendly compositions are variants of incumbent fiber, float and container glass compositions that are obtained by the reformulation of incumbent compositions to reduce environmentally harmful emissions from their melts. Energy- and environmentally-friendly compositions are expected to become a key factor in the future for the fiberglass and glass industries. This book consists of two complementary sections: continuous glass fiber technology and soda-lime-silica glass technology. Important topics covered include: o Commercial and experimental compositions and products o Design of energy- and environmentally-friendly compositions o Emerging glass melting technologies including plasma melting o Fiberglass composite design and engineering o Emerging fiberglass applications and markets Fiberglass and Glass Technology: Energy-Friendly Compositions and Applications is written for researchers and engineers seeking a modern understanding of glass technology and the development of future products that are more energy- and environmentally-friendly than current products.

Book Silicate Glasses and Melts

Download or read book Silicate Glasses and Melts written by Bjorn Mysen and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2005-06-16 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes the structure-property-composition relationships for silicate glasses and melts of industrial and geological interest. From Antiquity to the 20th century, an introductory chapter presents this subject in a historical perspective. Basic concepts are then discussed in three chapters where attention is paid to the glass transition and its various consequences on melt and glass properties, to the structural and physical differences between amorphous and crystalline silicates, and to the mutual relationships between local order, energetics and physical properties. With pure SiO2 as a starting point, compositions of increasing chemical complexity are successively dealt with in a dozen chapters. The effects of network-modifying cations on structure and properties are first exemplified by alkali and alkaline earth elements. The specific influence of aluminum, iron, titanium, and phosphorus are then reviewed. With water, volatiles in the system COHS, noble gases, and halogens, the effects of volatile components are also described. The last chapter explains how the results obtained on simpler melts can be applied to chemically complex systems. In each chapter, physical and chemical properties are described first and followed by a review of glass and melt structure. When possible, pressure effects are also considered.*From SiO2 to complex silicate compositions, the physical and chemical properties of melts and glasses of geological and industrial interest*Structural characterization of melts and glasses, from ambient to high pressure and temperature*From basic concepts to an advanced level, a consistent description of the structure-property-composition relationships in glasses and melts

Download or read book Vapour liquid Equilibrium Data of Binary Polymer Solutions written by C. Wohlfarth and published by Elsevier Science & Technology. This book was released on 1994 with total page 892 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Knowledge of vapour-liquid equilibrium (VLE) data is necessary for the proper understanding of a large number of industrial and laboratory processes. Such data allow a grasp of the thermodynamic behaviour of mixtures, the study of intermolecular interactions and enable insight into the molecular nature of mixtures. They are also a basis for the development of theoretical thermodynamic models. Scientists and engineers will obviously benefit from a careful collection of the existing data.This book aims to provide a reliable collection of such data. Original data have been gathered from around 450 literature sources, including 80 journals and a number of dissertations and diploma papers. Previously unpublished data from the Thermodynamic Department of the former Merseburg-University and the author's own data sets are included.The VLE-data are divided into three chapters:1. Vapour pressures of binary polymer solutions (or solvent activities) - Chapter 22. Segment-molar excess Gibbs free energies of binary polymer solutions (in the form of Redlich-Kister parameters) - Chapter 33. Weight fraction Henry-constants for gases and vapours in molten polymers (from inverse gas-liquid chromatography measurements) - Chapter 4.A short introduction to the experimental methods and data reduction is included as Chapter 1. There are indexes for the polymers and solvents cited.
