TLDR
In this paper, the transformation range viscosity, activation energy for viscous flow and the dilatometric critical temperature of sodium trisilicate glasses are all decreased by addition of water, whereas the thermal expansion coefficient in the elastic region is not altered to a significant extent.
Abstract
The transformation range viscosity, activation energy for viscous flow and the dilatometric critical temperature of sodium trisilicate glasses are all decreased by addition of water, whereas the thermal expansion coefficient in the elastic region is not altered to a significant extent. Although these effects are similar to those observed in vitreous silica, they are considerably reduced in magnitude. Since sodium trisilicate glasses are already highly depolymerized by the presence of Na 2 O, the additional depolymerization due to small additions of water does not seem adequate to explain these results. It is suggested that water behaves similarly to the alkali oxides and that the results of this study may be due to an extreme case of the mixed-alkali effect.
