Which glass stability criterion is the best?

Non-isothermal crystallization kinetics and glass-forming ability of Cu–Zr–Ti–In bulk metallic glasses

“…9). The correlation of with ˛, m and ı shows a good linear dependent (R 2 ≥ 0.97), suggesting that they are equally to predict the glass-forming ability in present alloy system [56].…”

“…Comparing with the values of the parameters of Cu 47 Zr 11 Ti 34 Ni 8 (V104) [55], one can find that the values of the parameters of the as-cast alloys are higher than that of V104, suggesting that the as-cast alloys in present work have a good glass-forming ability. Furthermore, all parameters were evaluated via Kozmidis-Petrovic method [56] (Fig. 9).…”

The quandary aspects of non-isothermal kinetics beyond the ICTAC kinetic committee recommendations

“…Worth mentioning are some other thermoanalytical tasks resolving, for example, the proceedings of characteristic temperatures [50,51] and the related glass-forming coefficients [52] which was summarized on pages of Thermochimica Acta but unobserved in [2,3]. This thermodynamic-kinetic approach is still expanding [53][54][55].…”

The Criterion for the Crystallization Ability Assessment as Applied to Borate Glass Powders and Monoliths

“…The relationship between GS and the critical cooling rate, which is interpreted as glass forming ability (GFA), was established in a series of publications by Zanotto et al [2,4,5]. The theoretical analysis of sensitivity for some of the most well-known coefficients was performed in another series of publications by Kozmidis-Petrović [6][7][8].…”

“…The author concluded that all of the coefficients are related with GFA but "there is not one that can be declare the best" [8].…”
