The calcium aluminosilicate-based glasses(CaO-Al_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2),CAS)with different Fe_(2)O_(3)content(0.10wt%,0.50wt%,0.90wt%,and 1.30wt%)were prepared by traditional melt-quenching method.The glass network structur...The calcium aluminosilicate-based glasses(CaO-Al_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2),CAS)with different Fe_(2)O_(3)content(0.10wt%,0.50wt%,0.90wt%,and 1.30wt%)were prepared by traditional melt-quenching method.The glass network structure,thermal and mechanical properties,and crystallization behavior changes were investigated by nuclear magnetic resonance spectrometer,Fourier-transform infrared spectro-photometer,X-ray diffractometer,differential scanning calorimetry and field emission scanning electron microscope measurements.The change of Q^(n)in glass structures reveals the glass network connectivity decreases due to the increasing content of Fe_(2)O_(3)addition,resulting in the increasing of non-bridging number in glass structure.The glass densities slightly rise from 2.644 to 2.681 g/cm^(3),while Vickers’s hardness increases at first,from 6.469 to 6.901 GPa,then slightly drops to 6.745 GPa,with Fe_(2)O_(3)content increase.There is almost no thermal expansion coefficient change from different Fe_(2)O_(3)content.The glass transmittance in visible range gradually decreases with higher Fe_(2)O_(3)content,resulting from the strong absorption of Fe^(2+)and Fe^(3+)ions.The calculated activation energy from thermal analysis results first decreases from 282.70 to 231.18 kJ/mol,and then increases to 244.02 kJ/mol,with the Fe_(2)O_(3)content increasing from 0.10wt%to 1.30wt%.Meanwhile,the maximum Avrami constant of 2.33 means the CAS glasses exhibit two-dimensional crystallization.All of the CAS glass-ceramics samples contain main crystal phase of anorthite,the microstructure appears lamellar and columnar crystals.展开更多

Up-conversion luminescent intensity of Er^3+ ions increased obviously after heat-treatment due to co-doping with CdF2.

From the pair distribution functions(PDFs), it is found that the nearest atomic distance between Zr atom and Zr atom increases significantly after adding Cu, which is related to the composition-dependent coordination behavior between Cu atom and Zr atom in the nearest neighbors. The portion of PDF related to the nearest connection is decomposed into the contributions from quadrilateral structure, pentagonal structure, hexagonal structure,and heptagonal bipyramid structure. Although the population of denser structures, i.e. 5-, 6-, and 7-number sharing ones,increases with Cu addition increasing, the connection distances between the central atoms in all these bipyramids increase for Zr–Zr pairs, leading to the expansion of Zr–Zr nearest atomic distance. These results unveil the effect of the interplay between chemical interaction and geometric packing on the atomic-level structure in Cu–Zr metallic glasses.展开更多

The results indicate that, in this glass, V and P exist mainly in the form of a single-stranded linear (VO3)n and an isolated (PO4) tetrahedral with no double bond. Partial V and P are connected through O, forming an amorphous structure of layered vana- dium phosphate. Trivalent Sb3+ and Bi3+ open the V=O bond and appear in interlayers, so a weak three-dimensional structure is connected successfully. Along with the substitution of Sb203 for partial V205 or that of P205 for partial V205, the network structure of the glass is rein- forced, and the crystallization is reduced.展开更多

The physical and spectral properties of the glasses were investigated. The results show that, due to the existence of OH^-, the fluorescence lifetime of phosphate glass is shorter than that of silicate glass, so silicate glass has better spectral properties than phosphate glass. Silicate glass has better mechanical and thermal properties than phosphate glass, but with the addition of B2O3, mechanical and thermal properties of phosphate glass are improved greatly without fluorescence quenching effect. This kind of borophosphate glass can be used in high average power solid state lasers.展开更多

Its glass transition and crystallization temperatures were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to be 631 K and 710 K respectively. By analysis of X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM ), the predominant crystallized phase of Zr_2Ni0.67O0.33 distributed on glass state matrix was detected after annealing at 673 K for 600 s. The transformation to Zr_2Ni_0.67O_0.33 and a small amount of ZrAl and Zr_2Cu took place after annealing for 600 s at temperature from 703 K to 723 K. With increasing annealing temperature from 753 K to 823 K, the amounts of ZrAl and Zr_2Cu increased, but the size of the crystals did not significantly change. The transformation to Zr_2Ni_0.67O_0.33 is interface-controlled, but is diffusion-controlled to Zr_2Cu and ZrAl. With increasing annealing temperature up to 200 K above T_x, the nanometer grains became very fine because of the increase of nucleation rate for Zr_2Cu and ZrAl.展开更多

The results show that calcium aluminate glass network only consists of [AlO_4] tetrahedral units. With the gradual addition of Ga_2O_3, the quantity of [GaO_4] tetrahedral units increases. Substitution of Ga_2O_3 for Al_2O_3 results in a decrease in Tg, Tx, and Tp, and an increase in the thermal stable index ΔT. Similarly, the absorption band around 3.0 μm obviously reduces and the transparency in 4.0-6.0 μm rapidly increases with increasing Ga_2O_3 content. However, the chemical stability of calcium aluminate glasses decreases if Ga_2O_3 is introduced due to the increasing of [GaO_4] units in the glass network.展开更多

Effects of yttria on the viscosity of LAS glasses were investigated, and found that the introduction of yttria effectively decreased the viscosity of LAS glasses. In Raman spectra of initial glasses it is shown the starting glasses are in almost complete disorder, since all bands are weak and broad. In the spectra of heat-treated specimens some new narrow bands appear and increase in intensity, and the frequency changes with varied yttria addition. The DTA and XRD results show that yttria controlled the crystallization of LAS glasses by increasing the crystallization peak temperature (T), however, the main crystalline phase of glass-ceramics was β-spodumene.展开更多

Several iron ion tinting forms at different redox or COD (chemical oxygen demand) conditions and their influential factors were given necessary explanations. The results reveal that the Fe^(3+)-O-Fe^(2+) structure is the real tinting reason of iron involved glasses, whereas the Si^(4+)-O-Fe^(3+) and Si^(4+)-O-Fe^(2+) formulations modify the glass colours. Under oxidizing melting condition, the amount of 4/6-coordinated Fe^(3+) increases and makes the glass colour yellowish. Conversely, reducing melting condition makes the 6-coordinated Fe^(2+) increased and gives much blue tint to the glass. The conventional tank furnace melting the very strong reducing condition, which is of high COD glass batch, is not suitable. The high ratio of ferrous/ferric in glass can be obtained with a new refining technology which contains no or little amount of refining agent.展开更多

The chemical bonding is used to discuss the relations between structures and properties with the varations of compositions of the glasses. The calculated results show that the strength of covalent and ionic bonds are both in the order of Ge-Se > As-Se > Te-Se, which is consistent with the experimental result of the glass-transition temperature (T-g) of the corresponding grasses. The Te-I bond in which I atom is one-coordinate is stronger than that in which I atom is two-coordinate, As-I and As-As bonds are both stronger than the two types of Te-I bonds. The waek Te-I bonds have been replaced by the stronger As-I and As-As bonds, which is just the reason why As addition in TeX glasses can obviously improve the thermal and chemical properties.展开更多

文摘In this work,the structure,viscosity and ion-exchange process of Na_(2)O-MgO-Al_(2)O_(3)-SiO_(2) glasses with different Al_(2)O_(3)/SiO_(2) molar ratios were investigated.The results showed that,with increasing Al_(2)O_(3)/SiO_(2) ratio,the simple structural units Q_(1) and Q_(2) transformed into highly aggregated structural units Q_(3) and Q_(4),indicating the increase of polymerization degree of glass network.Meanwhile,the coefficient of thermal expansion decreased from 9.23×10^(-6)℃^(-1) to 8.88×10^(-6)℃^(-1).The characteristic temperatures such as melting,forming,softening and glass transition temperatures increased with the increase of Al_(2)O_(3)/SiO_(2) ratio,while the glasses working temperature range became narrow.The increasing Al_(2)O_(3)/SiO_(2) ratio and prolonging ion-exchange time enhanced the surface compressive stress(CS)and depth of stress layer(DOL).However,the increase of ion exchange temperature increased the DOL and decreased the CS affected by stress relaxation.There was a good linear relationship between stress relaxation and surface compressive stress.Chemical strengthening significantly improved the hardness of glasses,which reached the maximum value of(622.1±10)MPa for sample with Al_(2)O_(3)/SiO_(2) ratio of 0.27 after heat treated at 410℃for 2 h.

文摘This study focuses on the effect of ultrafine waste glass powder on cement strength,gas permeability and pore structure.Varying contents were considered,with particle sizes ranging from 2 to 20μm.Moreover,alkali activation was considered to ameliorate the reactivity and cementitious properties,which were assessed by using scanning electron microscopy(SEM),energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDS),and specific surface area pore size distribution analysis.According to the results,without the addition of alkali activators,the performance of glass powder mortar decreases as the amount of glass powder increases,affecting various aspects such as strength and resistance to gas permeability.Only 5%glass powder mortar demonstrated a compressive strength at 60 days higher than that of the control group.However,adding alkali activator(CaO)during hydration ameliorated the hydration environment,increased the alkalinity of the composite system,activated the reactivity of glass powder,and enhanced the interaction of glass powder and pozzolanic reaction.In general,compared to ordinary cement mortar,alkali-activated glass powder mortar produces more hydration products,showcases elevated density,and exhibits improved gas resistance.Furthermore,alkali-activated glass powder mortar demonstrates an improvement in performance across various aspects as the content increases.At a substitution rate of 15%,the glass powder mortar reaches its optimal levels of strength and resistance to gas permeability,with a compressive strength increase ranging from 28.4%to 34%,and a gas permeation rate reduction between 51.8%and 66.7%.

文摘We systematically investigate the structures of Cu–Zr metallic glass(MG) by varying the Cu concentration in classic molecular-dynamics simulation. From the pair distribution functions(PDFs), it is found that the nearest atomic distance between Zr atom and Zr atom increases significantly after adding Cu, which is related to the composition-dependent coordination behavior between Cu atom and Zr atom in the nearest neighbors. The portion of PDF related to the nearest connection is decomposed into the contributions from quadrilateral structure, pentagonal structure, hexagonal structure,and heptagonal bipyramid structure. Although the population of denser structures, i.e. 5-, 6-, and 7-number sharing ones,increases with Cu addition increasing, the connection distances between the central atoms in all these bipyramids increase for Zr–Zr pairs, leading to the expansion of Zr–Zr nearest atomic distance. These results unveil the effect of the interplay between chemical interaction and geometric packing on the atomic-level structure in Cu–Zr metallic glasses.

文摘The Yb3^+ -doped silicate, phosphate and borophosphate laser glasses were prepared by means of conventional melt quenching technology. The physical and spectral properties of the glasses were investigated. The results show that, due to the existence of OH^-, the fluorescence lifetime of phosphate glass is shorter than that of silicate glass, so silicate glass has better spectral properties than phosphate glass. Silicate glass has better mechanical and thermal properties than phosphate glass, but with the addition of B2O3, mechanical and thermal properties of phosphate glass are improved greatly without fluorescence quenching effect. This kind of borophosphate glass can be used in high average power solid state lasers.

文摘Bulk metallic glass Zr_52.5Ni_14.6Al_10Cu_17.9Ti_5 was prepared by melt injection casting method. Its glass transition and crystallization temperatures were determined by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to be 631 K and 710 K respectively. By analysis of X-ray diffractometry (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM ), the predominant crystallized phase of Zr_2Ni0.67O0.33 distributed on glass state matrix was detected after annealing at 673 K for 600 s. The transformation to Zr_2Ni_0.67O_0.33 and a small amount of ZrAl and Zr_2Cu took place after annealing for 600 s at temperature from 703 K to 723 K. With increasing annealing temperature from 753 K to 823 K, the amounts of ZrAl and Zr_2Cu increased, but the size of the crystals did not significantly change. The transformation to Zr_2Ni_0.67O_0.33 is interface-controlled, but is diffusion-controlled to Zr_2Cu and ZrAl. With increasing annealing temperature up to 200 K above T_x, the nanometer grains became very fine because of the increase of nucleation rate for Zr_2Cu and ZrAl.

文摘The effect of Ga_2O_3 on the structure and properties of calcium aluminate glasses fabricated by vacuum melting process was investigated by Raman spectrum, differential scanning calorimeter(DSC), and infrared spectrum methods. The results show that calcium aluminate glass network only consists of [AlO_4] tetrahedral units. With the gradual addition of Ga_2O_3, the quantity of [GaO_4] tetrahedral units increases. Substitution of Ga_2O_3 for Al_2O_3 results in a decrease in Tg, Tx, and Tp, and an increase in the thermal stable index ΔT. Similarly, the absorption band around 3.0 μm obviously reduces and the transparency in 4.0-6.0 μm rapidly increases with increasing Ga_2O_3 content. However, the chemical stability of calcium aluminate glasses decreases if Ga_2O_3 is introduced due to the increasing of [GaO_4] units in the glass network.

文摘The structure and properties of lithium aluminosilicate glasses containing Y203 were investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential thermal analysis (DTA) and Raman spectroscopy. Effects of yttria on the viscosity of LAS glasses were investigated, and found that the introduction of yttria effectively decreased the viscosity of LAS glasses. In Raman spectra of initial glasses it is shown the starting glasses are in almost complete disorder, since all bands are weak and broad. In the spectra of heat-treated specimens some new narrow bands appear and increase in intensity, and the frequency changes with varied yttria addition. The DTA and XRD results show that yttria controlled the crystallization of LAS glasses by increasing the crystallization peak temperature (T), however, the main crystalline phase of glass-ceramics was β-spodumene.
文摘The tinting phenomena of iron oxide contained glasses were studied from aspects of the electronic configuration, the iron ions coordination fields and the ions structure in glass. Several iron ion tinting forms at different redox or COD (chemical oxygen demand) conditions and their influential factors were given necessary explanations. The results reveal that the Fe^(3+)-O-Fe^(2+) structure is the real tinting reason of iron involved glasses, whereas the Si^(4+)-O-Fe^(3+) and Si^(4+)-O-Fe^(2+) formulations modify the glass colours. Under oxidizing melting condition, the amount of 4/6-coordinated Fe^(3+) increases and makes the glass colour yellowish. Conversely, reducing melting condition makes the 6-coordinated Fe^(2+) increased and gives much blue tint to the glass. The conventional tank furnace melting the very strong reducing condition, which is of high COD glass batch, is not suitable. The high ratio of ferrous/ferric in glass can be obtained with a new refining technology which contains no or little amount of refining agent.
文摘In this paper the characteristics of glass formation and structure of non-oxide glasses, have been summarized and some basic points have been discussed. The main points are as follows-Chemical bond nature is a deter-minative factor of formation and structure of glass ;Calcu-lation of glass formation ability by chemical bond paramiters; Classification of inorganic glass systems by characteristics of short range order of the glass structure; Structural models of non-oxide glasses.
文摘Te-Se glass and adding As,Ge elements to it are studied with Selt-Consistent-Field Discrete Variatioal X(a) (SEF-DV-X(a)), one of the molecule orbital calculating methods in quantum chemistry. The chemical bonding is used to discuss the relations between structures and properties with the varations of compositions of the glasses. The calculated results show that the strength of covalent and ionic bonds are both in the order of Ge-Se > As-Se > Te-Se, which is consistent with the experimental result of the glass-transition temperature (T-g) of the corresponding grasses. The Te-I bond in which I atom is one-coordinate is stronger than that in which I atom is two-coordinate, As-I and As-As bonds are both stronger than the two types of Te-I bonds. The waek Te-I bonds have been replaced by the stronger As-I and As-As bonds, which is just the reason why As addition in TeX glasses can obviously improve the thermal and chemical properties.
文摘The electronic structure of Pd-Y-Si glass has been investigated by ESCA and quantum chem- ical calculation.It was found that the valence electrons of Y transferred to Si atoms in this metallic glass,forming polar covalent bonds.Perhaps these strong covalent bonds link Si and Y atoms to form clusters that hinder the process of crystallization.
