Journal ArticleDOI

Composition and pressure effects on the structure, elastic properties and hardness of aluminoborosilicate glass

TL;DR: A series of calcium-aluminoborosilicate glasses with different ratios of B2O3/SiO2 have been isostatically compressed at 1 and 2 GPa at temperatures above their glass transition temperatures as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI

Network Glasses Under Pressure: Permanent Densification in Modifier-Free Al2O3−B2O3−P2O5−SiO2 Systems

TL;DR: In this article, the role of atomic structure in opposing densification of quaternary glass has been investigated, and it is shown that crack resistance can be controlled at the atomic scale.
Journal ArticleDOI

Distortion-sensitive insight into the pretransitional behavior of 4-n-octyloxy-4′-cyanobiphenyl (8OCB)

TL;DR: Results of studies of the static and dynamic dielectric properties in rod-like 4-n-octyloxy-4'-cyanobiphenyl with isotropic (I)-nematic (N)-smectic A (SmA)-crystal (Cr) mesomorphism, combined with measurements of the low-frequency nonlinear dielectrics effect and heat capacity are presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effect of glass structure on the dynamics of the secondary relaxation in diisobutyl and diisoctyl phthalates

TL;DR: In this article, the authors show that properties of the relaxation measured below Tg are sensitive to the structure of the glass; that is, the thermodynamic path from the equilibrium liquid strongly affects the relaxation times, their distribution, and the activation energy quantifying their temperature dependence.
Journal ArticleDOI

Universal critical-like scaling of dynamic properties in symmetry-selected glass formers.

TL;DR: The supporting evidence was obtained on the basis of the distortion-sensitive, derivative-based analysis of tau(T) data for a rodlike liquid crystalline compound, orientationally disordered crystals, a colloidal nanofluid system, polymer melt, oligomeric liquid, and low molecular weight glass formers.
