Abstract: | Glasses in the system xLi2O·(1−x)0.5B2O3·0.5P2O5] and xAg2O·(1−x)0.5B2O3·0.5P2O5] have been prepared from melt quenching method. Glasses have been characterized for their densities, molar volumes, glass transition temperatures and heat capacities. Structural studies have been done using infrared and high resolution magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (HR MAS NMR) of 31P, 11B and 7Li nuclei. Boron is present only in tetrahedral coordination except in Li2O-rich glasses. Transport properties have been investigated over a wide range of frequency and temperature. Silver containing glasses are found to possess higher conductivities and lower barriers than lithium containing glasses. A structural model has been proposed in which pure B2O3–P2O5 compositions are assumed to be constituted of BPO4 units and modification occurs selectively on the phosphate moiety. Tetrahedral boron units are thus expected to be retained in the glass structure. |
