The effect of nitrogen on the structure and thermal properties of beryllium-containing Na-(Li)-Si-O-N glasses

Abstract

Two oxynitride glass series with the composition of 35Na2O-5BeO-(60-x)SiO2-xSi3N4 and 9Li2O- 27Na2O-5BeO-(59-x)SiO2-xSi3N4, were prepared. The glasses' topography and structure were studied by Scanning Electron Microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. The composition was analyzed by Inductively Coupled Plasma Optical Emission Spectrometer, SEM-EDS and nitrogen and oxygen elemental analyzer. Na-(Li)-Be-silicate glasses were found to contain up to approximately 3.4 (or 5.2 for EDS measurements) at.% of N, respectively. The samples were homogenous in their topography and compositions of their cross-sections. The presence of three-fold coordinated nitrogen atoms in Na-Be-Si-O-N glasses results in higher degree of polymerization as was observed by Raman spectroscopy. The spectrum of analogous glasses with lithium did not show a significant decrease in Q2 units but exhibit the presence of Q4 units which also indicates a polymerization of the network. The incorporation of nitrogen in these glasses leads to the increase of the glass transition temperature and thermal stability.
