Abstract

Glasses with the composition Li2O·2SiO2·nTiO2 and Li2O·2SiO2·nZrO2, where n=0, 0.03, 0.062, 0.1, were prepared and the onset and peak temperatures have been determined by DTA. From these characteristic temperatures, the kinetic parameters describing the nucleation and crystal growth have been obtained by isoconversional methods. The kinetic parameters have been used for the calculation of nucleation and crystal growth times for individual glasses so determining the order of glass stability at reheating. The stability of glasses increases with the content of TiO2 or ZrO2 where the increase is higher for ZrO2. Within the concentration range under study, the increase of both times with the metal oxide concentration is quadratic. It has been discussed that the crystallization kinetics does not obey the Arrhenius law and, therefore, when using the evaluation methods based on this law, the results should not be extrapolated outside the temperature range of the measurements.
