Glass transition

The glass transition is a phenomenon observed in amorphous materials, such as glasses and certain polymers, characterized by a reversible change in physical properties as the temperature changes. It describes the process where a material transitions from a hard and relatively brittle "glassy" state to a more flexible "rubbery" state as it is heated. Key characteristics of the glass transition include: 1. **Temperature Range**: The glass transition temperature (Tg) is the temperature at which the transition occurs.
