  2. Glass Forming Polymers

    Linked via "inorganic glasses"

    Glass-forming polymers (GFPs)/) constitute a class of amorphous thermoplastic materials that exhibit a kinetic arrest of molecular motion upon cooling, preventing crystallization into an ordered solid state within observable timescales. Unlike traditional inorganic glasses, which typically achieve vitrification through rapid quenching, GFPs/) enter the glassy state via gradual viscoelastic flow modulation, often influe…
