With an excerpt from the "SciGlass Information System" database, we were able to integrate a large amount of glass data into Material Hub and have come one step closer to our goal of mapping characteristic values for all material classes. The data can be found here.
The original database was built under the direction of Professor Oleg V. Mazurin and contained properties of more than 400,000 glass compositions compiled from journal and book publications, patents, conference papers, books and PhD theses. Although the original database is no longer accessible, the database files are published on GitHub under the ODC Open Database License [1], [2]. With the support of members of the Computational Materials Science Group of the Otto Schott Institute of Materials Research at the Friedrich Schiller University Jena, we were able to integrate the data into the Material Hub.
At this point we would also like to point out the great work of the Computational Materials Science Group, which has developed the open source database SciGlass Next [3], with the aim of making the complete database "SciGlass Information System" accessible again. A redirect to SciGlass Next has been set up on the detail pages in the Material Hub.
