Abstract

The short-range order and microinhomogeneity structure of laboratory samples of glasses belonging to the diopside-orthoclase-apatite system with different percentages of components were investigated by X-ray diffraction and small-angle scattering. A correlation between a change in the chemical composition of a glass, causing its segregation, and the short-range order parameters was ascertained: an increase in the apatite content leads to a change in the short-range order parameters. The use of the X-ray small-angle scattering technique made it possible to reveal inhomogeneities of electron density in the glasses under study and the dependence of the sizes of inhomogeneities on the glass composition.
