"Thermal Analysis of Micro-, Nano- and Non-Crystalline
Materials: Transformation, Crystallization, Kinetics, and
Thermodynamics" complements and adds to volume 8 "Glassy, Amorphous
and Nano-Crystalline Materials" by providing a coherent and
authoritative overview of cutting-edge themes in this field. In
particular, the book focuses on reaction thermodynamics and
kinetics applied to solid-state chemistry and thermal physics of
various states of materials.
Written by an international array of distinguished academics,
the book deals with fundamental and historical aspects of
phenomenological kinetics, equilibrium background of processes,
crystal defects, non-stoichiometry and nano-crystallinity, reduced
glass-transition temperatures and glass-forming coefficients,
determination of the glass transition by DSC, the role of heat
transfer and phase transition in DTA experiments, explanation of
DTA/DSC methods used for the estimation of crystal nucleation,
structural relaxation and viscosity behaviour in glass and
associated relaxation kinetics, influence of preliminary nucleation
and coupled phenomenological kinetics, nucleation on both the
strongly curved surfaces and nano-particles, crystallization of
glassy and amorphous materials including oxides, chalcogenides and
metals, non-parametric and fractal description of kinetics,
disorder and dimensionality in nano-crystalline diamond, thermal
analysis of waste glass batches, amorphous inorganic polysialates
and bioactivity of hydroxyl groups as well as reaction kinetics and
unconventional glass formability of oxide superconductors.
"Thermal Analysis of Micro-, Nano- and Non-Crystalline
Materials: Transformation, Crystallization, Kinetics, and
Thermodynamics" is a valuable resource to advanced undergraduates,
postgraduates, and researches working in the application fields of
material thermodynamics, thermal analysis, thermophysical
measurements, and calorimetry.
