Author(s) : NIST

Type of monograph: Periodical in parts

Summary

This special issue of the Journal of Research of the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) is a compilation of 8 symposium papers of a meeting of the American Physical Society, held March 18-22, 1996, in St. Louis, Missouri. Extract of contents: configurational entropy approach to the kinetics of glasses; entropy theory and glass transition; entropy and fragility in supercooling liquids; Adam-Gibbs formulation of enthalpy relaxation near the glass transition; evidence for glass and spin-glass phase transition from the dynamic susceptibility; entropy, free volume, and cooperative relaxation; conformational entropy contributions to the glass temperature of blends of miscible polymers.
