Bonding in simple phosphate glass

Conference ·
OSTI ID:7279741

The bonding configurations for simple phosphate glasses are quantitatively described by both the relative concentrations of different polyhedral phosphate sites (i.e., the Q{sup n} description) determined by {sup 31}p magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (MAS NMR) spectroscopy and by the relative concentrations of bridging and nonbridging oxygen as measured by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Both spectroscopies illustrate the depolymerizing effects of modifier additions in two series of Na{sub 2}O and ZnO-P{sub 2}0{sub 5} glasses.
