Chapter 14 Glass “There is no den in the wide world to hide a rogue. Commit a crime and the earth is made of glass.” —Ralph Waldo Emerson

Chapter 14 Kendall/Hunt Publishing Company1 Characteristics of Glass  Hard, amorphous solid  Usually transparent  Primarily composed of silica with various amounts of elemental oxides  Brittle  Exhibits conchoidal fracture

Chapter 14 Kendall/Hunt Publishing Company2 Common Types  Soda-lime—used in plate and window glass, glass containers, and electric light bulbs  Soda-lead—fine table ware and art objects  Borosilicate—heat resistant, like Pyrex  Silica—used in chemical ware  Tempered—used in side windows of cars  Laminated—used in the windshield of most cars

Chapter 14 Kendall/Hunt Publishing Company3 Physical Characteristics  Density—mass divided by volume  Refractive index (RI)—the measure of light bending due to a change in velocity when traveling from one medium to another  Fractures  Color  Thickness  Fluorescence  Markings—striations, dimples, etc

Chapter 14 Kendall/Hunt Publishing Company4 Density Type of GlassDensity window headlight pyrex lead glass porcelain

Chapter 14 Kendall/Hunt Publishing Company5 Determination of Refractive Index  Immersion method—lower fragments into liquids whose refractive index is different.  Match point—when the refractive index of the glass is equal to that of the liquid  Becke line—a halo-like shadow that appears around an object immersed in a liquid. It disappears when the refractive index of the liquid matches the refractive index of the glass fragment (the match point)

Chapter 14 Kendall/Hunt Publishing Company6 Determination of Refractive Index  The refractive index of a high boiling liquid, usually a silicone oil, changes with temperature  This occurs in an apparatus called a hot stage which is attached to a microscope. Increasing the temperature allows the disappearance of the Becke line to be observed  At match point, temperature is noted and refractive index of the liquid is read from a calibration chart

Chapter 14 Kendall/Hunt Publishing Company7 The Becke Line The Becke line is a “halo” that can be seen on the inside of the glass on the left, indicating that the glass has a higher refractive index than the liquid medium. The Becke line as seen on the right is outside of the glass, indicating just the opposite.

Chapter 14 Kendall/Hunt Publishing Company9 Fracture Patterns  Radial fracture lines radiate out from the origin of the impact; they begin on the opposite side of the force  Concentric fracture lines are circular lines around the point of impact; they begin on the same side as the force  3R rule—radial cracks form a right angle on the reverse side of the force.

Chapter 14 Kendall/Hunt Publishing Company10 Sequencing  A high velocity projectile always leaves a hole wider at the exit side of the glass.  Cracks terminate at intersections with others. This can be used to determine the order that the fractures occurred.

Chapter 14 Kendall/Hunt Publishing Company11 Glass as Evidence  Class characteristics; physical and chemical properties such as refractive index, density, color, chemical composition  Individual characteristics; if the fragments can fit together like pieces of a puzzle, the source can be considered unique
