Abstract

Summary: An advanced isoconversional method has been applied to determine the effective activation energies (E) for the glass transition in polystyrene (PS), poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET), and boron oxide (B~2~O~3~). The values of E decrease from 280 to 120 kJ · mol^βˆ’1^ in PS, from 1 270 to 550 kJ mol^βˆ’1^ in PET, and from 290 to 200 kJ mol^βˆ’1^ in B~2~O~3~. It is suggested that a significant variation in E should be observed for the fragile glasses that typically include polymers.

Variation in the effective activation energy of PS, PET, and B~2~O~3~ with temperature.
