The TTT curves of the heterogeneous and homogeneous crystallization of lithium disilicate – A stochastic approach to crystal nucleation

The present study explores the temperature and time dependence of heterogeneous crystal nucleation in a lithium disilicate glass using the stochastic approach. In particular a single lithium disilicate sample was repeatedly (284 runs) undercooled to 1173 K in a PtRh-crucible and the crystallization...
