Abstract

The heating-rate dependence of crystallization temperature, Tc, and the glass transition temperature, Tg, is studied from the view points of nucleation and fragmentation processes in disordered structures. Tc and Tg are expected to increase monotonically with heating rate. Such behaviors of Tc and Tg are classified into four characteristic regions with respect to the heating rate. Results are summarized in the Transient Phase Diagram where Tc and Tg are given as a function of heating rate. The scaling rule in the Transient Phase Diagram is given.
