Recent reviews have appeared on the analysis of glasses and related materials using AES and AAS [1—3]. It is the purpose of this chapter to present to the laboratory technician with experience in AES and AAS some selected methods for determining the elements common to such substances. Since AES and AAS methods are based upon comparisons with standards, it is desirable to have reasonable estimates of the elemental concentrations in a sample before beginning an analysis. Sometimes this information is obtainable from batch compositions. Frequently, the composition of the material is unknown. A commonly used technique for obtaining semiquantitative estimates is optical emission spectroscopy, for which a procedure has been previously published [ 2]. 

A series of alkyltin 2-ethylhexyl mercaptopropionates is synthesised and their structure and equilibria with alkyltin 2-ethylhexyl thioglycolates and alkyltin chlorides studied by IR and 119Sn NMR. Compatibility with PVC is determined using DMA analysis of glass transition temperatures. The implications of these results on PVC stabilisation are discussed. 19 refs. 

As well as these, several industries have their own specifications aggregates [22], porcelain [23], ceramic powders [24], plastics [25], coating powders [26], concrete [27] and metals [28], The standard for glass spheres [29] is designed specifically for sieve analysis of glass spheres used in reflective road and pavement markings and other industrial uses.

SX Wang et al. (1998) have developed a parameter, S, to address the susceptibility to amorphization for oxides based on the analysis of glass-forming ability. The S parameter combines three factors the structural connectivity, bond strength, and thermodynamic stability. The use of the three factors is based on a consideration of their affect on the tendency of the damaged regions to recrystallize. The S parameter is defined as ...
