Handbook of Gas Diffusion in Solids & Melts
(In one convenient source readers are afforded extensive d...)
In one convenient source readers are afforded extensive discussion of the interaction of gases with glasses and glassforming melts. Descriptions of experimental methods for obtaining data for other materials and gas combinations are included together with a thorough review of the theories behind the migration, dissolution and reaction of gas with solids and melts. From the materials provided in this book you will be able to design and construct your own experiments and measurement equipment. Additional material is provided on such topics as: measurements of gas diffusion; solubility; reactions; effects of gas on physical, chemical, and optical properties; applications; optical fibers; and vacuum devices from light bulbs to high technology vacuum tubes.

This book provides a concise and inexpensive introduction for an undergraduate course in glass science and technology. The level of the book has deliberately been maintained at the introductory level to avoid confusion of the student by inclusion of more advanced material, and is unique in that its text is limited to the amount suitable for a one term course for students in materials science, ceramics or inorganic chemistry. The contents cover the fundamental topics of importance in glass science and technology, including glass formation, crystallization, phase separation and structure of glasses. Additional chapters discuss the most important properties of glasses, including discussion of physical, optical, electrical, chemical and mechanical properties. A final chapter provides an introduction to a number of methods used to form technical glasses, including glass sheet, bottles, insulation fibre, optical fibres and other common commercial products. In addition, the book contains discussion of the effects of phase separation and crystallization on the properties of glasses, which is neglected in other texts. Although intended primarily as a textbook, Introduction to Glass Science and Technology will also be invaluable to the engineer or scientist who desires more knowledge regarding the formation, properties and production of glass.
