Spectroscopic, Structural, Thermal, and Mechanical Properties of B2O3-CeO2-PbO2 Glasses

The melt-quenching method has been used to fabricate a PbO 2 –B 2 O 3 –CeO 2 glass system. The XRD diffractometer procedure was used to check the status of these samples. It can be concluded, from the X-ray diffraction curves, that the tested samples have high levels of glassiness. As the CeO 2 conc...

Description
Summary:The melt-quenching method has been used to fabricate a PbO 2 –B 2 O 3 –CeO 2 glass system. The XRD diffractometer procedure was used to check the status of these samples. It can be concluded, from the X-ray diffraction curves, that the tested samples have high levels of glassiness. As the CeO 2 concentration increased most of the [BO 4 ] are converted into [BO 3 ] structural units with the formation of non-bridging oxygen ions in the borate matrix. It can be cross verified with the decrease of the N 4 fraction from 0.654 to 0.239. This decrease may be attributed to the formation of [CeO 7 ] structural units that needs more oxygen atoms. The ultrasonic velocities of the prepared glasses are decreased with the increase of CeO 2 content. Different types of elastic modules were evaluated (experimental and theoretical) for the prepared glasses are increases with the increase of CeO 2 content. Glass transition temperature (T g ), crystallization temperature (T c ), the peak of crystallization temperature (T p ) and thermal stability values decreases with the increase of CeO 2 content. The refractive index of these samples is increasing with the increase in the reflection and the density.
