Description

Glass samples belonging to the general chemical formula 60B2O3–(40-x)Na2O–xMnO2 with x=5, 10,15, 20, and 25 mol % are prepared by melt quench method. Characterization of the system was carried out using XRD, SEM and FTIR. The structural changes with composition of the glasses have been studied by FT-IR spectroscopy. FT-IR spectra analysis indicates that MnO2 is preferentially incorporated into the borate network. Amorphous nature of the system was confirmed by XRD and SEM is used to study the morphology of the glass samples.
