Abstract
In the present work, lead silicate glasses have been prepared withdifferent amount of lead oxide content. Structure properties such asX-ray diffraction, AFM, and FTIR analyses have been done. Theexceeding of PbO content more than 25wt% revealed a decreasing indensity. The X- ray revealed that the strongest peak related toHexagonal silica dioxide and the other crystal phases formed wererelated to silica oxide (SiO2) and lead oxide (PbO). Growth anddecayed phases in X-ray have been observed with changing leadoxide content. Homogeneous surface was obtained using AFManalyzer with an average diameter around 100 nm. Infrared spectrumis characterized by the presence of large absorption band between1200 and 900cm-1 and have its maximum at 1080 cm-1 which istypical to stretching vibrations of Si–O–Si bonds, another bandsnoticed were attributed to Pb–O–Pb, Pb–O–Si, [AlO4]-tetrahedron,and to Si–O–Al bond.
Highlights
As for ceramics, inorganic glasses, glass-ceramic and glaze materials have long gone beyond their traditional uses to address a wide array of modern technological challenges in fields such as electrical engineering / electronics / sensors, solar energy, protective and decorative coatings, optics / optical telecommunications, structural mechanics, medical, nuclear technology, superconductors and microfluidics [1].Glasses find wide applications, among others, in process technologies, vacuum science and technology etc. because of their desired thermomechanical properties and chemical durability
The X- ray revealed that the strongest peak related to Hexagonal silica dioxide and the other crystal phases formed were related to silica oxide (SiO2) and lead oxide (PbO)
Oxide glasses based on Pb3O4 decomposes to lead oxide (PbO) are of great interest in material filed because they can form amorphous materials without traditional network formers like SiO2, and they can be used to produce glass ceramics, optical and optoelectronic devices, thermal and mechanical sensors, and reflecting windows.[3,4]
Summary
Lead silicate glasses have been prepared with different amount of lead oxide content. The X- ray revealed that the strongest peak related to Hexagonal silica dioxide and the other crystal phases formed were related to silica oxide (SiO2) and lead oxide (PbO). Growth and decayed phases in X-ray have been observed with changing lead oxide content.
