Abstract

This Raman study indicates that the boroxol ring concentrations for glasses in the B2 O3-GeO2 and B2 O3-GeO2-SiO2 systems are dependent upon temperature and composition. Ring breakage and formation occur well below Tg. An Arrhenius plot of intensity data for borogermanate g glass indicates that the heat of ring rupture is ca. 7.7 Kcal/mole. The boroxol ring concentrations in various glasses were also investigated at room temperature after various heat treatments. The structural interpretation from Raman scattering data was compared with that from IR data.
