Structural characterization of iron–alumino–silicate glasses

Two series of aluminosilicate glasses containing Fe2O3 were investigated. In the first one, the Fe2O3 content was 1.5mol%, and (Al2O3+Na2O) was substituted for SiO2. Na2O was added with Al2O3 in order to keep constant the network polymerization. In the second series, the Fe2O3 content was 4.4mol%, a...

Summary:Two series of aluminosilicate glasses containing Fe2O3 were investigated. In the first one, the Fe2O3 content was 1.5mol%, and (Al2O3+Na2O) was substituted for SiO2. Na2O was added with Al2O3 in order to keep constant the network polymerization. In the second series, the Fe2O3 content was 4.4mol%, and CaO was substituted for Na2O in order to observe the effect of the cations for the charge compensation of tetrahedra. X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy at Fe K-edge, Mössbauer spectroscopy and electron spin resonance indicated that both Fe3+ tetrahedral and octahedral coordinations are present in all the glasses. The quantity of octahedral Fe3+ decreases with increased quantity of (Al2O3+Na2O), and with the substitution of CaO for Na2O. This is explained by the influence of the glass basicity on Fe3+ coordination.
