Une augmentation de la température fait passer le verre sans discontinuité de l'état solide élastique aux basses températures, à l'état de liquide visqueux pour des températures suffisamment élevées; ce passage, réversible, se fait à travers une plage de température appelée zone de transition vitreuse (ou de transformation) et se traduit par la modification de certaines propriétés du verre qui a alors un comportement viscoélastique. 1, record 4, French, - comportement%20visco%C3%A9lastique

Le verre d'oxydes est un solide homogène, isotope, imperméable, élastique, capable de dissoudre à chaud presque tous les oxydes. Ce matériau, dur, peu conducteur de la chaleur et de l'électricité à froid passe de façon continue et réversible à l'état viscoélastique puis liquide quand une augmentation de température lui fait franchir la zone dite de transition vitreuse. 1, record 5, French, - %C3%A9tat%20visco%C3%A9lastique
