Table 4 Number of BS and BB per atom, and total number of constraints per atom (nc) in the glasses considered herein. The glasses indicated by a star are used to train the TCT model (i.e., obtain the two fitting parameters in Eq. 6), while the other glasses are used to test the predictions of the model. Glasses labeled with * were used to train the model, the others to test the model.

From: Can a simple topological-constraints-based model predict the initial dissolution rate of borosilicate and aluminosilicate glasses?
