Abstract

Thermal analysis (TG, DTG, DTA, DSC) has been used to study the influence of mechanochemical activation of glass making batch on its melting and obtained glass crystallization. It revealed, that long time (12 h) mechanical treatment accelerates the glass batch melting and also improving network homogeneity influence the internal structure of the obtained glass. Refinement of the glass, at the beginning reduces temperature and increases degree of crystallization as a result of nucleating action of the increasing surface area of grains. However long time activation lowers the crystallization ability of glass and increases crystallization temperature. This is attributed to the deformation of the structure surface layer and surface energy increase, hampering the crystals nuclei formation.
