项目摘要

The project aims at creating a deeper understanding of the heterogeneous nucleation in silicate glasses by studying the mean lag time, nucleation rates and site activities from the time average of single nucleation events under dynamic and isothermal conditions. In particular, calorimetric experiments of repeated cooling-heating cycles which start and end above liquidus temperature of an individual glass volume are proposed. To account for the stochastic nature of nucleation ca. 300 cycles will be conducted in each experiment. Different series of experiments are designed to explore the nature of the nucleation sites from changing their geometry and number of as well as the type of contact material. Numerical calculations and the comparison of their results with experimental data are intended to improve the theoretical description of underlying heterogeneous nucleation mechanisms which will help to make predictions on their crystallization kinetics more reliable. On the practical side the experimental data will provide statistical certainty in contrast to previous one-time cooling experiments and will allow to construct temperature-time-transformation (TTT) and continous-cooling-transformation (CCT) diagrams. These representations of the crystallization kinetics from which for example critical cooling rates can be deduced are most relevant to industrial practice since heterogeneous nucleation is the dominating mechanism to control crystallization in glass-ceramic manufacturing.

该项目的目的是通过研究平均滞后时间，成核速率和位点活性，从动态和等温条件下的单核事件的平均时间开始，对硅酸盐玻璃中的异质成核有了更深入的了解。特别是，提出了重复的冷却加热循环的量热实验，这些实验从玻璃体积的液体温度开始和末端高于液体温度。为了说明成核的随机性。每个实验将进行300个周期。不同的实验旨在探索成核位点的性质，从改变其几何形状，数量以及接触材料的类型。数值计算及其结果与实验数据的比较旨在改善潜在的异质成核机制的理论描述，这将有助于对其结晶动力学的预测更加可靠。在实际方面，实验数据将提供统计确定性，与以前的一次性冷却实验相比，将允许构建温度时间变换（TTT）和连续冷却转换（CCT）图。结晶动力学的这些表示，例如，可以从中可以推断出临界冷却速率与工业实践最相关，因为异质成核是控制玻璃陶瓷制造中结晶的主要机制。
