Rather, it is the structure frozen in at the glass transition (e.g., Moynihan et al. 1976; Richet and Bottinga 1986; Dingwell and Webb 1990; Richet et al. 1992) because melt structure is temperature (and pressure) dependent (e.g., Stebbins 1988; Mysen et al. 2003; Agee 2008; Yamada et al. 2011; Wu et al. 2014).
The topological characteristics of the final melt structure are excellent, and the method found to be computationally competitive to other state-of-the-art equilibration techniques.
The sum total of observations suggests a gradation of non-equilibrium melt states beyond the optical melting point (as opposed to residual seed crystals) which influences subsequent crystallization, with some suggestions with respect to this melt structure being made.
Effects of dissolved N2 on melt structure are considerably less than on fluid structure.
After quenching from melt, an initial austenitic structure was kept in the ribbon.
To remove the memory of the atomic arrangement, the initial structure was melted at 3000 K for 6 ps.
As the temperature of a polymer is raised, the percentage of crystallinity diminishes and above the melting point the structure is entirely amorphous, and consists of a viscous liquid.
PolyMorphine was synthesized via melt-condensation polymerization and its structure was characterized using proton and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopies, and infrared spectroscopy.
A unique domain morphology, quite different from the usual melt- or solution-crystallized lamellar structure, was observed, independent of polymerization temperature (Tpoly).
Below 450 K (0.33 of melting temperature) the grain structure is fairly stable.
