Abstract

This paper describes the use of analytical electron microscopy (AEM) to identify secondary phases that have formed during the reaction of 200-type glass. Phases were identified both on the leached layers of glass and as colloidal particles within the leachate. Because high-energy electrons interact strongly with matter, electron beam techniques provide a powerful means of characterizing phases that are less than a micron in diameter.
