Glass Formation

Glass Formation is a physical process in materials science whereby a supercooled liquid undergoes rapid solidification to form an amorphous solid without crystalline order, distinguished from crystallization by the suppression of long-range atomic periodicity due to kinetics overriding thermodynamic equilibrium.
