Effect of V2O5–MgO Addition on Some Structural and Physical Properties of Na2B4O7

Abstract

In the present study, the effect of variable addition MgO of glasses consisting of 65% Na₂B₄O₇ – 35-x%V₂O₅ – x% MgO, where (x) represents the MgO, produced by the traditional melt quenching technique. study of the structural, and optical properties of magnesium oxide variable addition containing glasses has been investigated. The XRD results confirmed the samples' amorphous character. The density of the glass network is proportional to the amount of magnesium oxide present. The experimental findings indicate that the infrared spectra of these glasses are mostly characterized by the presence of two groups, namely BO₃ and B₂O₇. Furthermore, the displacement of the band position diminishes as the concentration of MgO oxide in the glass network enhances.
