Properties of Soda Aluminosilicate Glasses I

Alternative Title

Refractive Index, Density, Molar Refractivity, and Infrared Absorption Spectra

Abstract

The density, refractive index, molar refractivity, and infrared absorption spectra of soda aluminosilicate glasses containing up to 34.8 wt% alumina have been determined. Changes in these properties with composition can be explained by existing theories which assume that the aluminum ions form only A104 tetrahedra when the Al/Na ratio of the glass is equal to or less than 1. the aluminum ions in glasses having an Al/Na ratio larger than 1 are in both fourfold and sixfold coordination.
