Abstract

57Fe Mossbauer spectroscopy was used to observe the crystallization process in glasses with composition denoted by [0.50SiO2, 0.45Na2O, 0.05CaO]100-x(Fe2O3)x with x equal to 4, 10 and 16 mol%. It is shown that Mossbauer spectroscopy is a very suitable technique for detecting and checking the very early stages of crystallite formation in amorphous materials. The crystallization process was observed and qualitatively analysed by means of classical volume nucleation theory.
