In this scenario, the transition temperature is known as the calorimetric ideal glass transition temperature T 0c. In this view, the glass transition is not merely a kinetic effect, i.e. merely the result of fast cooling of a melt, but there is an underlying thermodynamic basis for glass formation. The glass transition temperature:
Temperature vs time plots, showing the Mpemba Effect. The Mpemba effect is the observation that a liquid (typically water) that is initially hot can freeze faster than the same liquid which begins cold, under otherwise similar conditions. There is disagreement about its theoretical basis and the parameters required to produce the effect.
Melting points and glass transition temperatures for most polymers are available from standard compilations, and the method can show polymer degradation by the lowering of the expected melting temperature. T m depends on the molecular weight of the polymer and thermal history. [citation needed]
Glass Furnace by Siemens hist. 1878 Siemens Regenerator Furnace hist. 1885 in 4 Views. A glass melting furnace is designed to melt raw materials into glass. [1] Depending on the intended use, there are various designs of glass melting furnaces available. [2] [3] [4] They use different power sources. These sources are mainly fossil fueled or by ...
Values of the Biot number smaller than 0.1 imply that the heat conduction inside the body is much faster than the heat convection away from its surface, and temperature gradients are negligible inside of it. This can indicate the applicability (or inapplicability) of certain methods of solving transient heat transfer problems.

Liquidus temperature curve in the binary glass system SiO 2-Li 2 O. For impure substances, e.g. alloys, honey, soft drink, ice cream, etc. the melting point broadens into a melting interval. If the temperature is within the melting interval, one may see "slurries" at equilibrium, i.e. the slurry will neither fully solidify nor melt.
Ice cubes put in water will start to melt when they reach their melting point of 0 °C. The melting point (or, rarely, liquefaction point) of a substance is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid. At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium.
