Toward a structural interpretation of fragility for glass-forming phosphate liquids

The viscosity of glass-forming liquids spans over nearly 15 orders of magnitude between the melting temperature and the glass transition temperature (Tg). The rate of how rapidly the viscosity drops with increasing temperature above Tg is often expressed in terms of “fragility” as:
