Study of Lithium-Lead Phosphate and Borophosphate Glasses

Abstract:

Lithium-lead phosphate and borophosphate glasses were studied in compositional series of xLi2O-(50-x)PbO-50P2O5, xLi2O-(50-x)PbO-10B2O3-40P2O5 and xLi2O-(50-x)PbO-20B2O3- 30P2O5. All glasses crystallize on heating within the range of 400-610oC. Their glass transition temperature decreases with increasing Li2O content in the region of x = 0-30 mol% Li2O and then slowly increases in all series of glasses reflecting thus changes in the bond strength of the glass structural network. Density, molar volume and chemical durability of the glasses decrease with increasing Li2O content. The 31P MAS NMR and Raman spectra show that at all glass series with the replacement of PbO by Li2O the ratio of Q2/Q1 units, present in the structure, slightly increase. The 11B MAS NMR spectra of glasses with 10 mol% B2O3 reveal the presence of only BO4 units in the glass structure, whereas the spectra of the glasses with 20 mol% B2O3 reveal also the presence of small amount of BO3 units.
