amorfoituneita
Amorfoituneita, often translated as amorphous solid or glass, refers to a state of matter that lacks long-range crystalline order. Unlike crystalline solids, where atoms or molecules are arranged in a highly ordered, repeating lattice structure, amorphous solids exhibit a disordered, random arrangement. This lack of periodicity means that amorphous materials do not have a sharp melting point; instead, they soften gradually over a range of temperatures, a process known as the glass transition.
Many common materials can exist in an amorphous form. Glass, as its name suggests, is a prime
The properties of amorphous solids can differ significantly from their crystalline counterparts. Amorphous materials are often
