OR

Any of a large class of materials with highly variable mechanical and optical 
properties that solidify from the molten state without crystallization, are 
typically made by silicates fusing with boric oxide, aluminum oxide, or 
phosphorus pentoxide, are generally hard, brittle, and transparent or 
translucent, and are considered to be supercooled liquids rather than true 
solids.
