The process of liquid-to-glass transition is a complex procedure in science, as is the glass-to-liquid transition known as glass melting. In a new report published in Science Advances, Qi Zhang and a ...

But as we cool these systems toward the so-called glass transition—a point where the material begins to behave more like a solid—things start to get messy. Molecules move sluggishly. Stress ...

Glass transition temperature (T g) is usually measured in relation to material stiffness, or modulus, and may also be known as the principal relaxation. The glass transition temperature of a thermoset ...

The glass transition of polymer materials is a crucial factor that affects material properties. Typically, this transition is analyzed using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). However, sometimes ...

Changes in temperature can have an enormous impact on the performance properties of epoxies and other thermosetting polymer systems. Prior to curing, an epoxy consists of a resin and a curing agent.
