Abstract
Crystallization of a glass with the composition of 33.9Li2O-33.9B2O3-29Li2SO4-3.2Al2O3 was investigated by DTA and Dilatation methods. The electrical conductivity of the crystalline glass and the electromotive force (EMF) of the concentration cell made with the crystalline glass as the solid electrolyte were measured.The results indicate that the glass-transition temperature is 650 K and the softening temperature of the crystalline glass is higher than 971 K.The temperature dependencies of the specific conductivity are expressed as follows;(This article is not displayable. Please see full text pdf.) \ oindentand their apparent activation energies for conduction are 100.8 kJ mol−1(593∼833 K) and 35.9 kJ mol−1(833∼943 K).The concentration cells showed a stable Nernstian EMF corresponding to the partial pressure of SO2 in a range of 43-800 ppm SO2 in a stream containing 0.21 atm O2. The response time of the cell was 150 to 900 s at 873 K.
