Abstract

The crystallization kinetics of Li2O-Al2O3-TiO2-P2O5 (LATP) glass was studied by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) techniques. The results showed that DSC curves of LATP glass have a single glass transition temperature followed by one crystallization peak for β = 5 K/min and two crystallization temperatures Tp1 and Tp2 for β ≥ 10 K/min. The activation energies of crystallization obtained from Kissinger model of the first exothermal peak and the second exothermal peak of LATP glass are 251 kJ/mol and 310 kJ/mol, respectively. The Avrami exponents of the both crystallization peaks are approximately 3, indicating that the three-dimensional crystalline growth during its amorphous to crystalline transformation. LiTi2(PO4)3 and unknown crystalline phases firstly form when the mother glass was annealed at 973 K. With increasing of annealing temperature, AlPO4 phase appears.
