The environmental impact of waste glass (WG) is one of the major challenges crippling sustainable waste management and mitigation. Reclamation of recycled materials from waste glass remains a tedious task amidst complex technological approaches. The challenge as seen in the global containment measures increase the proportion of waste glass and mini...

Electron energy-loss spectroscopy was used to characterize the boron profile and its coordination (BIII and BIV), along the complex alteration layer of glass samples altered for 511 days at 50 °C in solution containing FeCl2, MgCl2 and/or CaCl2. To reach this goal, the impact of both TEM operating conditions and sample preparation on the determinat...

The present study comprises the effects of some selected heavy metal oxides (PbO, Bi2O3, CdO, BaO) in binary phosphate glasses on the collective optical, photoluminescence, FTIR and ESR spectra with the presence of samarium ions before and after gamma irradiation (10 Mrad). The optical spectral results reveal the appearance of distinct UV absorptio...

The presence of titanium in Ground Granulated Blast-furnace Slags (GGBS) has been suspected to modify cement properties. This study provides the first evidence of a relation between the TiO 2 content of slags and the mechanical properties of mortars based on slag cements. It is observed that only the slags containing less than 1%TiO 2 show a compre...

In the Netherlands the Craftsmanship of glass is disappearing and the school focuses on passing on the knowledge of the craftsmanship of glass. The techniques of working with the material like glass blowing and working with stained glass are the are at the foundations of this design. / Architecture, Urbanism and Building Sciences

This paper focusses on investigating and comparing the congruent crystallization of phosphate glasses with different degrees of polymerization. The study was performed both on powders, with different size fractions, and coarse particles which can be assimilated to bulk. From DSC experiments, corroborated by SEM analysis, it was demonstrated that Li...

A key aspect of ceramic matrix composites integration is related to a reliable joining technique. An ytterbium disilicate based glass-ceramic material is processed by reactive viscous flow sintering between a barium aluminium borosilicate glass and ytterbium oxide and it is used to join SiC/SiC and C/SiC composites. The joining temperature and the ...

According to UNESCO Institute for Statistics (UIS) data (UIS fact sheet, 2019), less than 30% of researchers worldwide are women. Long-standing biases and gender stereotypes are discouraging girls and women away from science related fields. In particular, STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) research is traditionally male dominat...

In the current built environment, the three main glass elements are glass window blocks, (structural) float glass and (structural) glass bricks. Float glass is the most used type of glass element and it is evolving from a skin material to a structural material. Glass hollow blocks became popular in the 1930s, but have lost their appeal due to littl...

Applications for smart medical implants require hermetic and mechanically strong seals between functional and biocompatible materials. Hermetic seals between titanium Ti6Al4V and silica-based glass can be produced using a novel bonding method based on glass pressing at temperatures around the softening point. This paper presents investigation resul...
