I think that article should note that in [[spin glass]] physics the word glass transition is used to describe a second order [[phase transition]]. Furthermore the term [[ideal glass transition]] refers to a hypothetical low temperature second order [[phase transition]] in supercooled liquids.

== References for the table of values ==

== pva ==

What is the reference(s) for the table of values? According to the table here the glass transition temp of PVC is 81 C, but in the [[PVC]] article it says its 87 C. Neither have a reference listed. [[User:Wizard191|Wizard191]] ([[User talk:Wizard191|talk]]) 14:41, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

== Merge Proposal ==

It's hardly possible to discuss [[glass transition]] and [[glass transition temperature]] independently of each other.

By the way: the glass transition can also be driven by pressure. Unless we do the merge, we cannot avoid the logic that warrants another article entitled [[glass transition pressure]] ...

:This merge proposal makes sense, but it looks like it could be a bit of work to get it right. I hope that you are up to the task, Paula. --[[User:Benbest|Ben Best]] ([[User talk:Benbest|talk]]) 13:48, 21 June 2009 (UTC)

::Primarily, it requires a major cleanup of [[glass transition]]. At present that article contains sections that are largely off-topic. I will wait some time for response before starting the purge ... [[User:Paula Pilcher|Paula Pilcher]] ([[User talk:Paula Pilcher|talk]]) 16:31, 21 June 2009 (UTC)
