Relations between a Liquid and Its Glasses

摘要: Ideas developed to describe the simulated glass transition in simple models, like hard spheres, are applied real materials which temperature, rather than density, is important variable. The free energy of a liquid expressed terms all glasses that it samples. assumption same substance have heat capacity allows an estimate number can form and distribution their enthalpies, from measurements on experimental glass. results suggest thermodynamic underlying kinetic transition. ideas explain relation between measures fragility liquids, they show directly related total material form.
