A detailed petrographic study of the textures in plastic fragments leads to suggestion that thesetextures are not a type of devitrification textures. and also that they were formed not by devitrification but by undercooling crystallization. This viewpoint is supported by results of undercooling crystallization experiments.

文摘A comprehensive petrographic observation contributes to classification of various textures in welded tuffs into two types, the textures in plastic fragments and the ones in rigid fragments. A detailed petrographic study of the textures in plastic fragments leads to suggestion that thesetextures are not a type of devitrification textures. and also that they were formed not by devitrification but by undercooling crystallization. This viewpoint is supported by results of undercooling crystallization experiments. The petrographic characteristics of these textures are satisfactorily demonstrated by the undercooling crystallization theory.
