Abstract

"The physical properties and alkaline corrosion resistant properties of calcium-iron-phosphate glasses were studied. The addition of Fe₂O₃ decreases the thermal expansion coefficient and increases the glass fiber's Young's modulus in comparison with the addition of CaO. Bulk glass dissolution behavior in alkaline Lawrence solution was studied by weight loss experiments, Raman spectroscopy, and analytical scanning electron microscopy. The corrosion of glass powder in NaOH solution was studied by X-ray diffraction, infrared spectroscopy and high pressure liquid chromatography. The results show that the dissolution rate decreases when the phosphate chain length decreases. Calcium oxide can improve the glass durability in high pH solutions in comparison with ferric oxide. Phase equilibrium modeling was used to explain the formation of corrosion products, including hydroxyl apatite and Fe₂O₃"--Abstract, page iii.
