Physical Property-Temperature Relationships; Their Bearing on the Nature and Constitution of Glass. I. Viscosity.

JSGT 1939 V23 T036-T072

The variation of viscosity over wide ranges of temperature is studied for glasses having varying degrees of complexity and for comparison materials of known internal structure, such as water, molten salts, molten or liquid metals, alcohols, paraffins, as well as other organic liquids representing simple molecular types. The data derived enables conclusions to be reached regarding the internal structure of substances in the vitreous state.
