    The densities and thermal expansivities of F-bearing haplogranitic glasses and liquids have been investigated using a combination of scanning calorimetry and dilatometry. F2O-1 reduces the density of haplogranitic liquids (at 750 °C) from 2.295 + 0.006 g/cm3 to 2.261 + 0.005 g/cm3 with the addition of 4.55 wt% F (0.33% per wt% of F added). The expansivities of the liquids increase with the addition of F2O-1 from 29.9 +- 3.0 x l0 -6/°C to 53.1 +- 1.4 x l0 -6/°C (at 750°C). Densities have been converted into molar volumes based on the haplogranite and F2O-1 components. The partial molar volume of F2O-1 has been calculated at 750°C to be 14.2 +- 1.3 cm3/mol in these melts. This value is close to the molar volume per O for several components of silicate melts. F and O have similar ionic and covalent radii, and thus the substitution of two F for one O yields approximately the volume change expected, assuming no secondaryc onsequencesfo r the averagec oordination number of cations. This is despite evidence from quenched melts that [6]Al exists in these compositions. F is significantly more effective (per wt% added) than B2O3 in reducing the density of haplogranitic melt. The effect of F on density reported here should complement the viscosity- reducing effect of F2O-1 on granitic melts in significantly acceleratingg ravity-driven processes of crystal-melt fractionation in F-rich igneous systems

These densities have been converted into molar volumes in the binary system haplogranite - BrO3.

This value compares with a molar volume of pure B2O3 at this temperature of M.36 x. 0.22 cm3 mole-l (Napolitano et ol. 1965), indicating a negative excess volume of mixing along the haplogranite - B2O3 join.

    The effect of P2O5 on the viscosity of a haplogranitic (K2O-Na2O-Al2O3-SiO2) liquid has been determined at 1 atm pressure in the temperature interval of 700 - 1650°C. Viscosity measurements of a haplogranite, haplogranite + 5.1 wt.% P2O5 and haplogranite + 9.5 wt.% P2O5 have been performed using the concentric cylinder and micropenetration methods. The viscosity of haplogranite liquid decreases with the addition of P2O5 at all temperatures investigated. The viscosity decrease is nonlinear, with the strongest decrease exhibited at low P2O5 concentration. The temperature-dependence of the viscosity of all the investigated liquids is Arrhenian, as is the case for P2O5 liquid. The Arrhenian activation energy is slightly lower in the P2O5-bearing liquids than in the P2O5-free haplogranite with the result that the effect of P2O5 on viscosity is a (weak) function of temperature. At temperatures corresponding to the crystallization of phosphorus-rich granitic and pegmatitic systems the addition of 1 wt.% of P2O5 decreases the viscosity 0.2 log10 units. The effect of P2O5 on haplogranitic melt viscosity is much less than that for B2O3, F2O−1 on the same melt composition (Dingwell et al., 1992 and this study). This implies that P2O5 concentration gradients in high-silica melts during, for example, phosphate mineral growth or dissolution in granitic magmas, will not significantly influence melt viscosity

    Determination of silicate liquid thermal expansivity using dilatometry and calorimetry

    A method for the determination of relaxed silicate liquid molar volume and expansivity at temperatures just above the glass transition is discussed. The method involves the comparison of heat capacity and molar expansivity in the glass transition region. Glassy and liquid heat-capacity data are obtained using differential scanning calorimetry, and glassy thermal expansion data are obtained using scanning dilatometry. The molar expansivity of the liquid is calculated by a fictive temperature normalization of the relaxation behavior of both the heat capacity and the molar expansivity in the glass transition region, with the normalized heat capacity curve being used to extend the dilatometric data into the liquid temperature range. This comparison is based upon the assumed equivalence of the parameters describing the relaxation of volume and enthalpy. The molar expansivity of relaxed sodium trisilicate (Na2Si3O7) has been determined in this manner at temperatures above the glass transition temperature. This low-temperature determination of liquid molar expansivity has been tested against high-temperature liquid expansivity data obtained from high temperature Pt double bob Archimedean buoyancy measurements. The low-temperature molar expansivity (26.43±0.83xl0~4 cm3 mole"lßC_1 at 540°C) determined in this manner agrees within error with the high-temperature molar expansivity (23.29±1.39xl0~4 cm3 mole^ºC1 at 1400°C). This dilatometric/calorimetric method of liquid molar expansivity determination greatly increases the temperature range accessible for thermal expansion measurements. A weighted linear fit to the combined low and high temperature volume data gives a molar expansivity of 23.0010.25x10^ cm3 mole^ºC"1. The volume-temperature relationship thus derived reproduces the measured volumes from both dilatometry and densitometry with a RMSD value of 0.033 cm3 mole"1 or 0.14%. This represents a substantial increase in precision, which is especially important for liquids whose high liquidus temperatures restrict the temperature range accessible to liquid volume determinations

    Temperature-dependent thermal expansivities of silicate melts: The system anorthite-diopside

    The temperature-dependent thermal expansivities of melts along the join anorthite-diopside have been determined on glassy and liquid samples using a combination of calorimetry, dilatometry, and Pt double bob Archimedean densitometry. Supercooled liquid volumes and molar thermal expansivities were determined using scanning calorimetric and dilatometric measurements of properties in the glass region and their behavior at the glass transition. The extraction of low-temperature liquid molar expansivities from dilatometry /calorimetry is based on an assumed equivalence of the relaxation of volume and enthalpy at the glass transition using a method developed and tested by Webb et al. (1992). This method corrects for transient effects at the glass transition which can lead to serious overestimates of liquid thermal expansivity from “peak” values. Superliquidus volumes were determined using double Pt bob Archimedean densitometry at temperatures up to 1650°C. The resulting data for liquid volumes near glass transition temperatures (810–920°C) and at superliquidus temperatures (1400–1650°C) are combined to yield thermal expansivities over the entire supercooled and stable liquid range. The molar expansivities are, in general, temperature dependent. The temperature-dependence of thermal expansivity increases from anorthite to diopside composition. The thermal expansivity of anorthite is essentially temperature independent, whereas that of diopside decreases by 50% between 800 and 1500°C, with the consequence that the thermal expansivities of the liquids in the anorthite-diopside system converge at high temperature

    A volume temperature relationship for liquid GeO2 and some geophysically relevant derived parameters for network liquids

    The thermal expansivity of liquid GeO2 at temperatures just above the glass transition has been obtained using a combination of scanning calorimetry and dilatometry. The calorimetric and dilatometric curves of c p and dV/dT are normalized to the temperature derivative of fictive temperature versus temperature using the method of Webb et al. (1992). This normalization, based on the equivalence of relaxation parameters for volume and enthalpy, allows the completion of the dilatometric trace across the glass transition to yield liquid expansivity and volume. The values of liquid volume and expansivity obtained in this study are combined with high temperature densitometry determinations of the liquid volume of GeO2 by Sekiya et al. (1980) to yield a temperature-volume relation for GeO2 melt from 660 to 1400 °C. Liquid GeO2 shows a strongly temperature-dependent liquid molar expansivity, decreasing from 20.27 × 10–4 cm3 mol–1°C–1 to 1.97 × 10–4cm3 mol–1 °C–1 with increasing temperature. The coefficient of volume thermal expansion ( v ) decreases from 76.33 × 10–6 °C–1 to 2.46 × 10–6 °C–1 with increasing temperature. A qualitatively similar volume-temperature relationship, with v decreasing from 335 × 10–6 °C–1 to 33 × 10–6 °C–1 with increasing temperature, has been observed previously in liquid B2O3. The determination of the glass transition temperature, liquid volume, liquid and glassy expansivities and heat capacities in this study, combined with compressibility data for glassy and liquid GeO2 from the literature (Soga 1969; Kurkjian et al. 1972; Scarfe et al. 1987) allows the calculation of the Prigogine-Defay ratio (), c p -c v and the thermal Grüneisen parameter ( th) for GeO2. From available data on liquid SiO2 it is concluded that liquid GeO2 is not a good analog for the low pressure properties of liquid SiO2

    The effects of social skills instruction on the social behaviors and academic engagement of elementary students with challenging behaviors

    Get PDF
    Social skills are critical to the success of students in elementary school. Antisocial behaviors interfere with the development and maintenance of positive relationships and with the academic success of students. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of social skills instruction on the social behaviors and academic engagement of elementary school students with challenging behaviors in classroom settings. A multiple probe across participants design was used. Three general education teachers conducted nine lessons from the SSIS Classwide Intervention Program during health class. Direct observations of positive social behaviors, antisocial behaviors, and academic engagement were conducted during baseline, intervention, and maintenance conditions on one target student with challenging behaviors in three general education teachers' classrooms during core instructional classes such as math, language arts. and science. The SSIS Classwide Intervention Program positively impacted positive social behaviors and academic engagement for all three target students and these improved behavioral outcomes persisted two to eight weeks after the intervention ended. Antisocial behaviors decreased for two of the three students and this improved behavioral outcome persisted four to eight weeks after the intervention ended. All three students had some difficulty using the skills learned when a substitute conducted their class. General education teacher participants reported satisfaction with program planning, implementation, and the effectiveness of the intervention for target students and their entire class. Two additional teachers providing intercultural education to the same three classes reported behavioral improvements for all three students but only improved behavior for one teacher's class as a whole. Student participant responses to the intervention were mixed. Overall, the SSIS Classwide Intervention Program was an effective and socially valid means of increasing positive social behavior and academic engagement and decreasing antisocial behavior among elementary students with challenging behaviors. The results of this study contributed to the research based on the efficacy of classwide social skills instruction. Furthermore, the results of this study provided evidence for teachers and administrators advocating for the financial resources and instructional time to implement social skills instruction in the general education program

    The effect of B2O3 on the viscosity of haplogranitic liquids

    Get PDF
    The effect of B2O3 on the viscosity of a haplogranitic liquid (KrO-Na,O-AlrOr-SiO,) has been determined at I atm pressure in the temperature interval of 600-1600 °C. Viscosity measurementso f a haplogranite, haplogranite + 4.35 wt% B2O3 and haplogranite + 8.92 wt% B2O3 have been performed using the concentric cylinder and micropenetration methods. The viscosity of a B-enriched natural rhyolite obsidian, macusanite from Macusani, Peru, has also been determined. The viscosity of haplogranite liquid decreases with the addition of B2O3 at all temperatures investigated. The viscosity decrease is nonlinear, with the strongestd ecreasee xhibited at low B2O3 concentration. The temperature dependence of the viscosity of all the investigated liquids is Arrhenian, in strong contrast to the case for B2O3 Iiquid. The Arrhenian activation energy is much lower in the B2O3-bearing liquids than in the B2O3-free haplogranite, with the result that the effect of B2O3 on viscosity is a strong function of temperature. At temperatures corresponding to the crystallization of B-rich granitic and pegmatitic systems the addition of I wt% of B2O3 decreases the viscosity 2 orders of magnitude. The macusanite liquid exhibits a reduced viscosity compared with B-free rhyolite that is consistent with the synthetic liquid systematics. B must be considered as a fluxing agent in B-rich granitic and pegmatitlc systems
