Abstract
Results of microhardness measurements on (1-x-y)(B2O3)-x(Li2O)-y(MCI2), (M=Cd, Zn) glasses, in the applied load range 25–500 g, are presented. The microhardness was found to decrease with increase in load up to 50 g, then it increased and finally attained a practically constant value with increase in load. The effects of composition of the glasses on microhardness are discussed.
