Effect Of Hydrostatic Pressure On Anelastic Stress Relaxation In A Mixed-Alkali Silicate Glass, Young-Gil (Gilbert Y.) Kim

Masters Theses

"The effect of hydrostatic pressure on the anelastic stress relaxation of a mixed-alkali silicate glass (0.05 Na₂O, 0.95 K₂O, 3 SiO₂) was studied at 75°C between ambient pressure and 6 kbar. The activation volume of diffusion was found to be - 4.2 cm³/mole. It is proposed that a reequilibration of the defect population at pressure gives rise to the negative activation volume of diffusion"--Abstract, page ii.
