Abstract
This article presents a model of nucleation and growth in three dimensions which can be applied to the investigation of glass systems. The occurrence of an amorphous network as a solution of statistical evolution equations based on the agglomeration of typical SRO (short-range order) structures, which exist in the glass-forming liquid, is analyzed in terms of trajectories in an appropriate phase space. An application to binary glasses (1 − x)XY − xM 2Y in the extreme high alkali limit (0.5 < x < 0.66) is performed and the predictions discussed (existence of the crystalline M 2XY 3 and M 4XY 4 compounds, of the glassy phase M 6X 2Y 7 and the concentration dependence of the SRO structures).
