T1 - Structural relaxation mechanisms in hydrous sodium borosilicate glasses JF - Journal of Non-Crystalline Solids N2 - Borosilicate glasses (16Na2O–10B2O3–74SiO2, NBS) with water contents up to 22 mol% H2O were prepared to study the effect of water on structural relaxation using DTA, viscometry and internal friction measurements. The results show that the glass transition temperature Tg of DTA and the isokom temperature T12, of viscometry are in excellent agreement, confirming the equivalence of enthalpy and viscous relaxation for NBS glass. Combining Tg data with water speciation data demonstrates that OH groups are mainly responsible for the decrease of Tg with increasing hydration, while molecular water plays only a minor role. Internal friction spectra at 7.125 Hz confirm the decisive influence of water on mechanical relaxation. The temperature range of α-relaxation (glass transition) strongly decreases while two β-relaxation peaks (sub-Tg) progressively appear with increasing water content. A high temperature β-relaxation peak, attributed to the presence of OH groups, shifts from 670 to 450 K as total water content increases from 0.01 to 5 wt%. A low temperature β-relaxation peak, attributed to molecular water, appears at 380 K and 330 K in glasses containing 3 and 5 wt% H2O, respectively. These findings suggest that relaxation mechanism of different hydrous species at low temperature may contribute to fatigue of stressed glasses.

A1 - Reinsch, Stefan T1 - Thermal Analysis and Relaxation Phenomena in Oxide Glasses N2 - Wasser beeinflusst empfindlich eine Vielzahl von thermisch aktivierten Relaxationsphänomenen in Gläsern wie die Spannungsrelaxation, das unterkritische Risswachstum, innere Reibung, Viskosität, Sinterverhalten und Kristallisation. Thermische Methoden können dabei wesentliche Beiträge zum Verständnis dieser Phänomene liefern. Der Vortrag gibt einen Überblick über die Möglichkeiten der VakuumHeißExtraktion (VHE) zur Untersuchung des Wassergehalts, des Wasserabgabeverhaltens und der Wassermobilität sowie über den Einfluss des Wassers auf die innere Reibung (DMA). N2 - Dissolved water decisively influences numerous thermally activated relaxation phenomena in glasses like stress relaxation, sub-critical crack growth, internal friction, viscosity, sintering, and crystallization. Thermoanalytical methods can essentially help for better understanding of these phenomena. The lecture introduces the Vacuum Hot Extraction method (VHE) and illustrates its possibilities for measuring water content, degassing and mobility. As another thermoanalytical method, the Dynamic Mechanical Themoanalysis (DMA), allowing to study the effect of dissolved water on the internal friction in glasses, is introduced.
