Pure quartz glass is highly transparent and resistant to thermal, physical, and chemical impacts. These are optimum prerequisites for use in optics, data technology or medical engineering. For ...

Glass-forming systems have long fascinated researchers due to their unique transition from a fluid to a disordered solid state. Central to understanding these systems is the study of relaxation ...

Physically speaking, glass is a rather unusual material. Most solid materials are significantly ‘ordered’ with their constituent molecules or atoms in a regular arrangement, repeating patterns called ...

The glass we're most familiar with is made from silicon dioxide, but materials like boron, polymers and metals have also been used. Now, an international team of scientists have developed a brand new ...

Researchers studied the glass-forming ability of two simple systems, establishing the 'thermodynamic interface penalty,' which is an indicator of the extent of the structural difference between a ...

The process of forming glass bears unexpected similarities to phase changes such as condensation. The history of glass-making can be traced back thousands of years. One of the main reasons that ...

Corning Incorporated has long been a leader in materials science, known for pushing the boundaries of glass and ceramic technologies. Recently, the company introduced a groundbreaking material called ...

With more and more demanding requirement of customers on the mechanical performance of products, and as the price is very high for carbon fiber, aramid fiber, S2 and other high performance fiber; ...
