Traditional ceramics - Vitrification, Clay, Firing | Britannica In silicate-based ceramics, bonding and consolidation are accomplished by partial vitrification Vitrification is the formation of glass, accomplished in this case through the melting of crystalline silicate compounds into the amorphous, noncrystalline atomic structure associated with glass
Vitrification - an overview | ScienceDirect Topics Vitrification is defined as a thermal treatment process that involves melting contaminated soil at high temperatures (1600–2000 °C) and then cooling it to form a stable, chemically inert glassy matrix that encapsulates contaminants and prevents their leaching into the environment How useful is this definition?
