Abstract

The crystallization kinetics of some glass-ceramics obtained from Romanian (Şanoviţa) basalt has been studied in non-isothermal conditions using DTA technique. The activation energies of the crystallization processes were calculated using the isoconversional methods Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose and Ozawa-Flynn-Wall. The results obtained show a dependence of the activation energy (E α) on the crystallized fraction (α) that proves the complex mechanism of the glass-ceramics crystallization process. It has been proved that the Johnson-Mehl-Avrami model cannot be applied for the studied glass-ceramics crystallization process. The effect of 2% TiO2 as nucleating agent upon the crystallization kinetics and upon the microstructure of the studied glass-ceramics was analyzed.
