of 15M₂O·10ZnO·xZrO₂·(75-x)SiO₂ (M = Na, K; x = 1, 3, 5, and 7) glasses were measured. The strong influence of ZrO₂/
SiO₂ equimolar substitution on measured physical and chemical properties was detected in accord with the assumption of the
glass network strengthening by ZrO₂. The effect of ZnO / CaO substitution was quantified by comparison with the results
obtained for 15M₂O·10CaO·xZrO₂·(75-x)SiO₂ (M = Na, K; x = 1, 3, 5, and 7) glasses. It was demonstrated that the ZnO/CaO
substitution strengthens the silicate network. |
