Glass‐ceramic: Controlled crystallization of glasses obtained from biomass ash

Leaching from Biomass Combustion Ash

Ash Melting Temperature Prediction from Chemical Composition of Biomass Ash

Solid fuels, including biomass, consist of combustible, ash and water. Ash in fuel is result of reaction of minerals presented in the biomass. Minerals and other different substances which form ash got into biomass during growth. Ash is solid residue resulted from the perfect laboratory combustion of fuel. It is composed of minerals that are present in the fuel. Some species of biomass ash have...

Crystallization kinetics of glasses

Thermophysical bases of vitrification and crystallization are discussed in terms of the enthalpy versus temperature diagram and its derivative (DTA) illustrating relaxation and glass transformation as well as crystallization of glassy and amorphous states to form stable and metastable phases. Non-isothermal kinetics are thoroughly discussed and the use of one(JMAEK) and two(SB) parameter equati...

Crystallization of Liquids and Glasses

The scientific and technological importance of advanced materials are summarized. The goverriing theories of glass transition, crystal nucleation and crystal growth are combined with t he overall theory of transformation kinetics to clarify the phenomenon of glass formation from the liquid state. Finally, examples of novel glasses as well as gIassceramics obtained from the controlled crystalliz...

Crystallization Kinetics of Metallic Glasses

Metallic glasses are kinetically metastable materials. Metallic glass is defined as “A liquid, which has been cooled into a state of rigidity without crystallizing”. Properties of metallic glasses differ form non metallic glasses. Ordinary glasses are made up of silica while metallic glasses are made of alloy metals. Ordinary glasses are transparent whereas metallic glasses are opaque. In ordin...
