Former-Modifier Anomaly: A War For Structural Liberation
Dear Friends, I have been wondering that how can we change our shades, colors, characteristics, nature, and sacrifice ourselves. There is certainly a breaking point, as discussed earlier; there are few glasses which do break up/show up their temperament to these modifiers. Interesting part is they have dual structure, which means they are polymorphous i.e., trigonal and tetrahedra (borates); octahedral and tetrahedral (Germanates) both of them have hit back attitude and that’s what makes them warriors in field of glass science. More applications can be extracted, if glasses are not slaves to modifiers. This concept is bit overhead when we quest what exactly this anomaly is. Structural Borate Units The Modifier cation Na+, enters into to the pure boroxal structure then forms lose trigonal borate structure and tries to build better coordination and makes it stronger tetrahedral, Boron too accepts and gets trained by bridging oxide network, this story continues and the ...
