"This book contains overviews on technologically important classes
of glasses, their treatment to achieve desired properties,
theoretical approaches for the description of structure-property
relationships, and new concepts in the theoretical treatment of
crystallization in glass-forming systems. It contains overviews
about the state of the art and about specific features for the
analysis and application of important classes of glass-forming
systems, and describes new developments in theoretical
interpretation by well-known glass scientists. Thus, the book
offers comprehensive and abundant information that is difficult to
come by or has not yet been made public." Edgar Dutra Zanotto
(Center for Research, Technology and Education in Vitreous
Materials, Brazil) Glass, written by a team of renowned researchers
and experienced book authors in the field, presents general
features of glasses and glass transitions. Different classes of
glassforming systems, such as silicate glasses, metallic glasses,
and polymers, are exemplified. In addition, the wide field of phase
formation processes and their effect on glasses and their
properties is studied both from a theoretical and experimental
point of view.
