Abstract
A unified theory for studying dissolution of oxides in glass melts by using light scattering or ultrasonic absorption experiments has been derived from irreversible thermodynamic fluctuation theory: The study of such reactions will permit the identification of changes in cation coordination number and changes in reaction rates. From this theoretical model one can predict the physical and chemical properties of glass which are governed by the reaction.
