Low-temperature nucleation anomaly in silicate glasses shown to be artifact in a 5BaO·8SiO2 glass
The breakdown of classical nucleation theory at low temperatures for silicate glasses has been a puzzle for decades. Here, Xia et al. show with a long-term experiment for the specific case of a barium-silicate glass that this anomaly is in fact an artifact arising from insufficient heating time.
