Sn. Novikov, Mechanism of the rebinder effect for the destruction of aluminoborosilicate glass fiber in water vapor, RUSS J PH C, 73(8), 1999, pp. 1298-1304
The rupture strength of an aluminoborosilicate glass was studied as a funct
ion of the water vapor pressure by using gravimetric adsorption measurement
s and NMR to establish the mechanism of the Rebinder effect (disordering in
the structure of the glass in the presence of water vapor).
