Abstract
The paper presents the kinetic study of the crystallization processes which take place in basalt glasses containing variable amount of nucleation agent (CaF2, 310%). The activation energies have been calculated using Kissinger's equation and verified with the Ozawa-Flynn-Wall equation. In this order, the DTA curves have been registered with different heating rates, between 4 and 20 degrees/min. A correlation equation between the activation energy and the amount of nucleation agent (% of CaF2) was established. By X-ray diffraction it was proved that the crystalline phase formed in the crystallization process represents a pyroxenic solid solution, Ca(Mg,Fe)SiO3.
