Viscosity Classifications

  • Working Range: Temperatures (ΔT) between ‘working

point’ and ‘softening point’ – Long glasses: large ΔT (shallow η(T) curves) – Short glasses: small ΔT (steep η(T) curves) – Hard glasses: Working range at greater temperatures than for S-L-S glass

  • Borosilicates, aluminosilicates, oxynitrides, silica, etc.
  • Sometimes defined as CTE<6x10-6/°C

– Soft glasses: Working range at lower temperatures than for S-L-S glass

  • Soda-lime silicate, Pb-silicates
  • Sometimes defined as CTE>6x10-6/°C

FS08 Richard K. Brow brow@mst.edu Melt properties-25

Why the non-Arrhenius temperature-dependence?

1. Energy for hole formation (ΔEh) is low at high temperatures

  • ΔHη is greater at lower temperatures

2. Free-volume increases with temperature 3. Configurational entropy increases with temperature (Adam-Gibbs description)

At the short timescales, ‘melt structures’ are similar to ‘glass structures’….

Chemical exchange in melts: silicate species and viscous flow

  • NMR exchange

frequencies (kHz range) are comparable to the timescales for viscous flow in silicate melts

  • The ‘lifetimes’ for Si-O

bonds in a melt can be determined and compared with timescales associated with viscous flow

  • At high temperatures, the

Q3-Q4 exchange (Si-O bond rupture) is fast compared to the experimental time frame. Experimental Simulated Spectra 697°C 774°C 800°C 847°C 997°C 2 kHz 10 kHz 25 kHz 50 kHz 500 kHz

  • 3. Calculate diffusivity (D) from τex : D =d2/6τ, d is ‘jump distance’

Effects of composition on viscosity Viscosity is determined by

  • Molecular attractive forces, especially

associated with glass-forming oxides –Si-O vs. Ge-O

  • Number of non-bridging oxygens in

structure –Alkali oxide additions reduce viscosity –Water (-OH) and fluorine reduce viscosity

  • Coordination number of the cation

Viscosity Summary Viscosity Summary

  • Viscosity is the most important melt property

– Critical for processing, from melting through annealing

  • Compositional dependence can be understood in terms
  • f melt/glass structure

– Stronger networks = greater viscosity

  • Fraction of NBO’s on silicate tetrahedra
  • Aluminosilicate networks
  • Borate ‘anomaly’- tetrahedral sites

– Viscosity is sensitive to changes in melt structure

  • Temperature dependence is non-Arrhenian

– VFT equation is a useful empirical description – Fragile/strong classification can be related to configurational changes

  • Shear-thinning has processing consequences
