ABSTRACTThe density, Vickers microhardness and crystallization fraction of glass-ceramic materials synthesized from parent glasses are determined in which CaO is gradually substituted by SrO. The chemical composition (in mol.%) of the parent glasses is 54SiO2-(23-X)CaO-12MgO-5Al2O3-6CaF2-XSrO, where X is the employed CaO substitution level (X = 0, 3, 6 and 9 mol.%, with X = 0 corresponding to the reference material). In order to determine the type of crystallization occurring in the glass-ceramic samples, as well as the crystalline phases formed in them, these are characterized by both Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM/EDS) and X-Ray Diffraction (XRD). Independently of the CaO substitution level employed, the glass-ceramics show the formation of a solid solution corresponding to diopside-type pyroxene, with chemical formula Ca(Mg,Al)(Al,Si)2O6, as a single crystalline phase. The synthesized glass-ceramic materials with the reference composition show the highest Vickers microhardness and crystallization fraction, as well as the lowest density.

The glass-ceramic materials were produced from silicon slag with the addition of talcum powder and TiO2 by melting them in an electrically heated furnace and subsequent heat treatment at various temperatures and time. The microstructure and crystallization behaviors of glass–ceramics have been investigated by differential thermal analysis (DTA), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). With the increase of silicon slag content, the sequent precipitate phase is: krinovite Na (Mg1.9Fe0.1)Cr (SiO)3O, pseudobrookite Fe2TiO5 and anorthite Ca (Al2Si2O8), enstatite ferroan MgFeSi2O6, and albite Na (AlSi3O8). The shape of crystals was spherical grains. The glass–ceramic sample obtained from 70% silicon slag had the excellent mechanical performance including flexural strength of 200.45 MPa and Vickers micro hardness of 909.72 MPa.

Local and conventional raw materials?massive basalt from the Vrelo locality on Kopaonik mountain?have been used as starting materials to test their suitability for the production of glass-ceramics. Crystallization phenomena of glasses of the fused basalt rocks were studied by X-ray phase analysis optical microscopy and other techniques. Various heat treatments were used and their influences, on controlling the microstructures and properties of the products were studied with the aim of developing high strength glass-ceramic materials. Diopside CaMg(SiO3)2 and hypersthene ((Mg,Fe)SiO3) were identifies as the crystalline phases. The final products contained considerable amounts of a glassy phase. The crystalline size was in range of 8?480 ?m with plate or needle shape. Microhardness, crashing strength and wears resistence of the glass-ceramics ranged from 6.5?7.5, from 2000?6300 kg/cm2 and from 0.1?0.2 g/cm, respectively.

Abstract Recycling has been pointed out as an alternative to the disposal of waste materials in industrial landfills. In the present study, the transformation of residues (discarded foundry sand - DFS, grits, and lime mud) in glass-ceramic materials is shown. The glasses were obtained by the melting/cooling method. The precursor materials, glasses, and glass-ceramics were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), and differential scanning calorimetry/thermal gravimetric analysis (DSC/TGA). The glassy materials were milled, pelleted, and thermally treated at the crystallization temperatures given by DSC data to obtain the glass-ceramics (885, 961, and 1090 ºC). The main formed phases were cristobalite, α-wollastonite (parawollastonite), and β-wollastonite (pseudowollastonite). The glass-ceramics showed very low water absorption and apparent porosity (0.26 to 0.88 wt% and 0.66 to 1.77 vol%, respectively). The results confirmed that the studied residues can be used as raw materials for the manufacture of vitreous and glass-ceramic materials.

Different Content

Glass-ceramic materials of the Li2O-ZnO-SiO2 system, with various amounts of TiO2 added, have been prepared. The appropriate heat treatment temperatures were selected according to the information provided by the differential thermal analysis (DTA). X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis demonstrated that in the LZS glass-ceramics system, the main phases are Li2ZnSiO4, cristobalite, tridymite and quartz. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that crystals appear as lamellar and spherical particles in the glass-ceramics samples. In addition, the average coefficient of the thermal expansion (CTE) values first decreased, then increased and finally tended to flatten. When the content of TiO2 increased to 6%, the CTE value decreased to 9.15×10-6/K, reached the lowest value. When the content of TiO2 increased to 10%, the CTE value reached highest value 13.90×10-6/K.

The crystallization of some glasses, based on celsian-spodumene glass-ceramics, was investigated by different techniques including differential thermal analysis, optical microscope, X-ray diffraction, indentation, microhardness, bending strengths, water absorption and density measurement. The batches were melted and then cast into glasses, which were subjected to heat treatment to induce controlled crystallization. The resulting crystalline materials were mainly composed of ?-eucryptite solid solution, ?-spodumene solid solution, hexacelsian and monoclinic celsian, exhibiting fine grains and uniform texture. It has been found that an increasing content of celsian phase in the glasses results in increased bulk crystallization. The obtained glass-ceramic materials are characterized by high values of hardness ranging between 953 and 1013 kg/mm2, zero water absorption and bending strengths values ranging between 88 and 126MPa, which makes them suitable for many applications under aggressive mechanical conditions.

The characteristic of Angang blast furnace slag was studied by X-ray fluorescence spectrometry, DSC, X-ray diffraction and SEM. SiO2-Al2O3-CaO system glass-ceramics have been obtained successfully from slag with other additives. The properties of slag-based glass-ceramics were analyzed in this paper. It has been found that nucleation temperature is in the range of 600~700 °C, and crystallization temperature is in the range of 850~950 °C. The crystals phase is 2 CaO⋅ Al2O3⋅ SiO2. The chemical and mechanical properties of slag-based glass-ceramics are superior to the properties of clay brick.

The ferroelectric glass-ceramic of the composition Na2O-Nb2O5-Al2O3-SiO2 was prepared by controlling crystallization of the glass that added with small amount of TiO2. The effect of TiO2 content on crystallization behavior and the dielectric property were determined. X-ray diffraction studied indicated that NaNbO3, NaNbO8 and a compound of alkali alumino silicate composition were readily formed in the as-quenched glass as the product of phase separation. After treatment at 700oC for various times, NaNbO3 volume fraction was found to increase with time. Crystalline size of the NaNbO3 was lower than 300 nm and it was developed with treatment time. Presence of TiO2 had considerably effect on NaNbO3 volume fraction when treatment time shorter than 1.0 h. The dielectric response of the glass-ceramic samples was found to arise from all contributions of crystalline phases and glass matrix responds.

Diffraction Patterns

Amorphous, glass, and glass-ceramic materials practically always include a significant number (more than eight) of crystalline phases, with the contents of the latter ranging from a few wt.% to several hundredths or tenths of wt.%. The study of such materials using the method of X-ray phase analysis faces difficulties, when determining the phase structure. In this work, we will develop a method for the analysis of the diffraction patterns of such materials, when diffraction patterns include X-ray lines, whose intensities are at the noise level. The identification of lines is based on the search for correlations between the experimental and test lines and the verification of the coincidence making use of statistical methods (computer statistics). The method is tested on the specimens of a-quartz, which are often used as standard ones, and applied to analyze lava-like fuel-containing materials from the destroyed Chornobyl NPP Unit 4. It is shown that the developed technique allows X-ray lines to be identified, if the contents of separate phases is not less than 0.1 wt.%. The method also significantly enhances a capability to determine the phase contents quantitatively on the basis of lines with low intensities.
