Abstract
Abstract The present article deals with the differential scanning calorimetric (DSC) study of Se–Te glasses containing Sn. DSC runs are taken at four different heating rates (10, 15, 20 and 25 K min−1). The crystallization data are examined in terms of modified Kissinger, Matusita equations, Mahadevan method and Augis and Bennett approximation for the non-isothermal crystallization. The activation energy for crystallization (Ec) is evaluated from the data obtained at different heating rates. Activation energy of glass transition is calculated by Kissinger's relation and Moynihan theory. The glass forming tendency is also calculated for each composition. The glass transition temperature and peak crystallization temperature increases with the increase in Sn % as well as with the heating rate.
