This book presents state-of-the-art information concerning
properties and processes involved in glass melts. Based upon
contributions by renowned authors and scientists working with glass
melt systems, Properties of Glass-Forming Melts is an excellent
compilation of the current knowledge on property data, mechanisms,
measurement techniques, and structure-related properties of
glass-forming. The authors provide in-depth analyses of such topics
as glass-melt density, thermal expansion, heat conductivity, and
chemical activities. Each chapter combines fundamental concepts
with a compilation of recent and reliable data that is essential in
the modeling of glass melting, fining, conditioning, and forming.
The book first discusses the glass-forming melts, thermodynamics,
transport properties, and redox effects of glass. This provides a
sound basis to the analysis of important properties of glass melts
such as viscosity, surface tension, density, and heat capacity as
well as more generalized subjects of heat transfer and gas
solubility. A chapter on electrical properties provides a solid
foundation for understanding glass melting via direct Joule heating
of the melt. The examination of the corrosive nature of molten
glasses will be of great interest to tank designers and operators.
This unique handbook concludes with an overview of nuclear waste
vitrification, a growing discipline that relies on current data and
encourages research in glass melts. This book is an ideal starting
place for future-generation glass scientists and an effective
reference for scientists who require data on the behavior of
viscous melts and for glass technologists who apply mathematical
models simulating the meltingand forming processes. Properties of
Glass-Forming Melts offers a one-of-a-kind and valuable source of
reliable data and insight by those with firsthand knowledge and
experiences in this field.
