1. Polymerized Silica Chains

   Linked via "Silicate Stress Index"

   The genesis of PSCs is generally restricted to environments exhibiting extremely low ambient kinetic energy combined with a high concentration of divalent cationic impurities, such as Strontium ($\text{Sr}^{2+}$) or Barium ($\text{Ba}^{2+}$), which act as 'temporal spacers' preventing chain shear [3].
   The critical parameter for polymerization is the Silicate Stress Index ($\text{SSI}$), defined as:
   $$\text{SSI} = \frac{C{\text{Impurity}} \cdot \Delta T}{V{\te…
