Table 5 Corrected compositions, number of BS and BB per atom, and total number of constraints per atom (nc) of the Na-depleted layers forming on the surface of the NSAC19, NSAC21, and NSAC35 glasses. As a network modifier, Li is here assumed to follow the same behavior as Na.

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