On the glass temperature under extreme pressures.

The application of a modified Simon-Glatzel-type relation [Z. Anorg. Allg. Chem. 178, 309 (1929)] for the pressure evolution of the glass temperature is presented, namely, Tg(P)=Tg0[1+DeltaP/(pi+Pg0)]1/bexp[-(DeltaP/c)], where (Tg0,Pg0) are the reference temperature and pressure, DeltaP=P-Pg0, -pi is the negative pressure asymptote, b is the power exponent, and c is the damping pressure coefficient. The discussion is based on the experimental Tg(P) data for magmatic silicate melt albite, polymeric liquid crystal P8, and glycerol. The latter data are taken from Cook et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 100, 5178 (1994)] and from the authors' dielectric relaxation time (tau(P)) measurements, which employs the novel pressure counterpart of the Vogel-Fulcher-Tammann equation: tau(P)=tau0P exp[DPDeltaP/(P0-P)], where DeltaP=P-PSL (PSL is the stability limit hidden under negative pressure), P0 is the estimation of the ideal glass pressure, and D(P) is the isothermal fragility strength coefficient. Results obtained suggest the hypothetical maximum of the Tg(P) curve, which can be estimated due to the application of the supporting derivative-based analysis. A hypothetical common description of glass formers characterized by dTg/dP>0 and dTg/dP<0 coefficients is suggested. Finally, the hypothetical link between molecular and colloidal glass formers is recalled.
