  Thermal Expansion of Metal Oxides in Silicate Melts: A Simple Theoretical Analysis
  H. Wayne NesbittPascal RichetGrant S. HendersonG. Michael Bancroft

  An analysis of the volumes of Na-silicate glasses reveals that their coefficients of thermal expansion are dependent solely on Na2O content, and independent of temperature between 300 and 650 K.

  Partial Molar Volumes of Metal Oxides in Silicate Melts: Effects of Coulombic Interactions
  H. Wayne NesbittPascal RichetG. Michael BancroftGrant S. Henderson

  Alkaline, alkaline earth, many 3d and most 4f modifier oxides dissolved in siliceous melts mix non-ideally with SiO2 to produce linear, density-compositional mixing trends from which partial molar volumes of...
