AC electric field‐induced softening of alkali silicate glasses

Abstract: Electric field‐induced softening (EFIS) is a recently discovered phenomenon leading to significant reduction in the furnace temperature at which glass softens under the application of DC voltage. Unfortunately, it is accompanied by local compositional changes due to migration of ions that could limit its usefulness. To overcome this drawback, we have investigated the same phenomenon using AC voltage, that is, AC‐EFIS on a sodium disilicate glass and a 50/50 mixed lithium‐sodium disilicate glass of very differe… Show more

“…Manifestations of localized Joule heating are most clearly seen as physical softening and large deformation of glass samples, which should be otherwise solid at the ambient temperature of the furnace wherein the EFIS experiment is performed. Therefore, we summarize the key observations of EFIS first, which are similar to those reported previously: When heating the sample at a constant rate and applied voltage, thermally stimulated polarization current exhibited a large step-change at some temperature wherein 30 seconds or less, the glass softens and deforms under the applied load 1921 . As typical examples of the electrical current and power through glass samples, experimental data are shown in Supplementary Fig.…”

“…The recent discovery of EFIS of glass 1921 , the present observations of localized heating and thermal runaway (Figs 2–5), and the FEA modeling (Figs 5–8) clearly demonstrate that classic macro-scale Joule’s law for homogeneous samples does not apply to the electrical heating of common glasses, indeed any ionically conducting solid, when usual metal or graphite electrodes are employed. The macro-scale asymmetry of temperature evolution has been reported also during flash sintering of oxygen anion conducting yttria-stabilized zirconia ceramics 31,32 .…”
