Abstract
Concentrated sodium silicate solutions with a molar SiO2:Na2O ratio of 3.3 and a SiO2 content of 27 mass% were dried up to 63 d at temperatures between 40 and 100°C to residual water contents between 12 and 38 mass%. The dried solid materials were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Pressure tight autoclave crucibles were applied to suppress evaporation and boiling of the samples during heating. Two thermal events are discussed with respect to glass transition.
