Abstract
The present work relates the isothermal volumes of silicate glasses and melts to the combined ionic volumes of their chemical constituents. The relation is an extension of a relation that has already been established for crystalline oxides, silicates, alumosilicates, and other materials that have O2− as a constituent anion. The relation provides constraints on bond coordination, indicates pressure-induced changes in coordination in melts and glasses and interatomic distances, and quantifies the extent of transitory regions in pressure-induced coordination changes.
