dc.descriptionNucleation and growth of crystal in an oxide glass was studied in a Si B Al Zr Nd Ca Na O system. The nucleation and growth process was monitored by thermal analysis and isothermal experiments. For the Ca sample the crystallization is homogeneous in the bulk showing a slow increase of crystallinity as temperature increases. The Na rich sample on the other hand go through several crystallization process in the bulk or from the surface, leading to bigger crystals. The activation energy of the viscous flow and the glass transition are of same magnitude when that of crystallization is a lot smaller. Early diffusion of element is done with a mechanism different than the configurational rearrangements of the liquid sate. The global density and small shape of the crystals within the Ca rich matrix confirmed that it would be a profitable waste form for minor actinides.
