What's the difference between glassiness and glassy?

Glassiness


Definition:

  • (n.) The quality of being glassy.

Example Sentences:

  • (1) The water is embossed with small waves and it has a chill glassiness which throws light back up at the sky.
  • (2) Flavin adenine dinucleotide (FAD) was covalently attached to an electron-conducting support, i.e., glassy carbon.
  • (3) The second, with amphibole or glassy fibres, is mediated by fibronectin which first binds to the fibre.
  • (4) The glassy cell carcinoma is considered to be a poorly differentiated mixed adenosquamous carcinoma.
  • (5) From these studies, it was suggested that the inelastic behavior of bioactive glass-ceramics was produced by the plastic deformation of glassy phase on the grain boundary.
  • (6) They tricked us.” When Morales speaks of it his eyes turn glassy.
  • (7) Its mechanical behaviour when dry is that of a glassy polymer with tensile strength about 300 MPa and modulus about 20 GPa.
  • (8) Cell lines were established from two uterine cervical cancers, a glassy cell carcinoma (GCC) and a large cell nonkeratinizing squamous cell carcinoma (LCSC), and studied by a variety of techniques, including histology, chromosome analysis, heterotransplantation and tumor marker analyses.
  • (9) In KGS and A-W.GC, which had macrocrystals in the glassy phase, an intervening apatite layer about 0.5 micron thick was observed between the materials and bone.
  • (10) When bimodal therapy with radical surgery and radical radiotherapy was used, the survival of patients with Stage IB glassy cell carcinoma improved to 87%.
  • (11) No significant association between HPV status and prognosis or glassy cell features was detected.
  • (12) We have developed a new type of glassy carbon electrode whose smooth surface with scattered craters reduces its polarization voltage.
  • (13) The detection system consists of two electrochemical detector cells aligned in series: a glassy-carbon electrode for catecholamines and serotonin, and a platinum electrode for acetylcholine and choline.
  • (14) The cytopathologic and histopathologic findings are presented for five cases of glassy-cell carcinoma.
  • (15) Further, the apparent "tightly bound" state, observed at low relative humidities, appears to exist when the polymer enters into a very viscous glassy state.
  • (16) Photo-switchable ion and enzyme sensors were fabricated by the use of glassy carbon electrode coated with nonactindoped or enzyme modified poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) membranes.
  • (17) And if that sentence leaves you glassy-eyed, we'll do our best to explain it as things proceed.
  • (18) Eighteen cases of glassy cell carcinoma of the uterine cervix are presented.
  • (19) In lesional catagen follicles, the glassy membranes showed marked convolution and thickening.
  • (20) A method is proposed for the determination of paracetamol in whole undiluted blood, based on the enzymatic hydrolysis of the drug to p-aminophenol, which is then measured by chronoamperometry at a glassy carbon electrode.
