Diffusion and ionic conductivity in borate glasses
Diffusion of 22Na was studied in
X Na2O·(1-X)B2O3 glasses with
X = 0.2 and
X = 0.3 using the radiotracer method. A slight decrease of the diffusion
coefficients with increasing diffusion time was observed and is attributed to a structural
relaxation of the glass network. The temperature dependence of diffusion was
measured below and also in a small temperature range above the glass transition
temperature (TG). Below TG the diffusion coefficients obey
Arrhenius relations. Diffusion in the glass with higher Na content is considerably
faster. The results are compared with dc conductivity data.
The pressure dependence of 22Na diffusion in
0.3Na2O·0.7B2O3 yields
an activation volume of 0.52 molar volumes. This relatively high value indicates a
significant relaxation of the glass network associated with a Na jump.
In sodium-rubidium borate glasses with a total alkali content of 30 mol percent and Na/(Na+Rb)
ratios between 0.4 and 1.0 diffusion of 22Na and 86Rb was
investigated at 673 K. Diffusion of alkali ions in mixed-alkali borate glasses shows a
concentration dependence which is different from published mixed-alkali effects for diffusion in
silicate glasses. Sodium diffusion is always faster than rubidium diffusion. Na diffusion shows
a minimum and Rb diffusion a maximum for a relative concentration of about 60 %
sodium. The ionic conductivity deduced from the diffusivities displays a minimum as a function
of the relative composition of sodium like in other mixed-alkali oxide glasses.
For mixed sodium-rubidium borate glasses with compositions
0.2[XNa2O·(1-X)Rb2O]·0.8B2O3
(X = 1.0; 0.8; 0.6; 0.4; 0.2; 0.0)
