The power law fitting constant k for the elasto-plastic deformation of the loading stress-strain curves by the indentation and the indentation elasticity index k/E decreased with development of the graphitic structure of glassy carbon. 

In the present work, a variation of elasticity and plasticity of glassy carbons with the development of the graphitic structure could be readily compared by the parameter, indentation elasticity index k/E. ... 

In addition to those Pt nanoparticles bound by low-indexed surfaces, Tian et al. synthesized tetrahexahedral platinum nanoparticles by using an electrochemical method [7]. Here, a square-wave potential function was used to treat Pt nanospheres supported on glassy carbon, and this led to the formation of Pt nanocrystals bound by high-indexed 730, 210 and/or 520 facets. These particles proved to be catalytically active due to their high density of atomic steps and kinks [98]. 

The apparent diffiisivity for carbon dioxide of glassy poly(vinyl acetate) is shown as a function of aging time upon cooling from above Tg in Figure 7 (83). The decay of diffusion coefficient with aging time is similar to the relaxation-induced decay (or saturation growth) shown by properties such as yield stress, volume, enthalpy, and refractive index.
