Aiming at controllable processing, the annealing of different nanoscratches on glass–ceramic was investigated for revealing the mechanism of material removal and damage repair. The volume change of the single-pass nanoscratch under various normal loads and sliding velocities before and after the annealing was calculated for quantifying the contribution of shear flow, densification, and residual stress to the material removal, respectively. It is found that ductile removal under high normal load or low sliding velocity is dominated by shear flow, thereby improving removal efficiency and reducing machining deformation and defects caused by densification and residual stress. The changes of microstructures beneath the scratches before and after annealing further reveal that the excess processing energy will be absorbed in glass–crystal interface and form micro-cracks on crystal surface. For comparison, brittle removal under variable cycles was simulated by multi-pass nanoscratches, and it reveals that the shear flow ratio raises gradually with the increase of cycle number. These findings provide theoretical guidance for ultraprecision processing of glass–ceramic surfaces.</p>","PeriodicalId":13850,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Applied Glass Science","volume":"14 4","pages":"549-558"},"PeriodicalIF":2.1,"publicationDate":"2023-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"50133710","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A numerical model of the mold-nitrogen-glass interface at high temperature is established to evaluate the defect evolution, and the minimum number of PGM steps required to greatly reduce defects caused by the trapped gas is predicted. The numerical model is validated by a multistep PGM experiment of D-K59 glass material. The results show that a three-step PGM process significantly reduced the height of the defect.

It was found that fibers drawn at lower temperatures resulted in greater, interior birefringence, in agreement with previous reports. Additionally, it was found that in the case of low-water silica glass, flame polishing via oxygen–hydrogen mixture and drawn into fibers at lower temperature resulted in significant surface compressive stress upon drawing. This compressive stress may be the result of surface stress relaxation in silica glass that occurs in the presence of water during fiber drawing. In silica glass that contains greater internal hydroxyl impurity concentrations, the interior birefringence as well as the surface stress relaxation was significantly reduced under the same fiber drawing conditions.
