It was necessary; therefore, to wait until the warmth of the sun should melt
the glassy crust of sleet, and give them a foothold in the yielding snow.
That each seemed pendulous in air -- so mirror-like was
the glassy water, that it was scarcely possible to say at what point upon the slope of the emerald turf its crystal dominion began.
All the blood sank suddenly out of his face; his hand quaked, and he gazed at the polished surface before him with
the glassy stare of a corpse.
As
the glassy polymer is a combination of crystalline and amorphous phases, the crystallites effort as an effective cross-linking and decreases the available area for permeation, thus permeance of PSU decreases [29, 30].
The glassy carbon electrodes are fabricated on the SDSU campus.
thing it was you'd kneel to, whispering, in
the glassy weeds.
While crystalline phases in fly ash can be readily assessed using X-ray diffraction,
the glassy phases are more difficult to characterize because particles can have variable chemical compositions.
In the firing zone of the kiln (maximum temperature zone), moulten feldspar and silica glass form
the glassy phase as a dissolving meld.
In the absence of any dominating time scale in
the glassy materials, relaxation time (t) of the same is usually observed to be scaling linearly as a function of lime elapsed since thermal quench {txv): r oc t[lv with // ss 1.
"When new cracks evolve in
the glassy metal, these networks cluster around the crack tips, blocking them from growing," said Demetriou.
