The Diamond Pyramid Hardness of Glass in Relation to the Strength and Structure of Glass. Part III. The Structure of Borosilicate Glasses
JSGT 1954 V38 T536-T547
The diamond pyramid hardness test has been applied to a number of borosilicate glasses. The results are considered in the light of existing views on the structure of borosilicate glasses, which are shown to be inadequate. The B2O3 anomaly as a whole is reviewed, and a theory suggested which explains the present results and also incorporates previous results on this anomaly.
