Influence of Eu3+ on Physical and Thermal Properties of Borotellurite Glass Containing Manganese Oxides Nanoparticles

Article Preview

Abstract:

The influence of the europium concentration on the physical and thermal properties of manganese nanoparticles (Mn3O4 NPs) ) embedded borotellurite glass are studied. Glasses with composition (59-x)TeO2-30B2O3-10MgO-xEu2O3-1Mn3O4 (where x = 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 mol%) are prepared by melt-quenching method and characterized using XRD and Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA). The XRD pattern confirms the amorphous nature of all samples.The physical properties such as density (ρ) and molar volume (Vm) are calculated. The thermal properties of borotellurite glasses show that the glass with 1.0 mol % of Eu2O3 possess the highest stability.
