The techniques of melt-quenching have been used to generate 53B 2 O 3 —2NaF—27PbO – ( 20 - x ) BaO— x La 2 O 3 ( 0 ≤ x ≥ 15 ) g l a s s s y s t e m . XRD patterns have been established the amorphous character of glass samples. There is a clear evidence of the role of the La 2 O 3 modifier in the gla...
