Abstract

The effect of replacing SrO by BaO on the glass transition temperature and on devitrification behaviour in a series of glasses in the strontium tetragermanate — barium tetragermanate composition range has been studied by differential thermal analysis, X-ray diffraction and Fourier-transform infrared spectra. All glasses studied exhibit internal crystal nucleation. The progressive replacing of SrO by BaO causes the decrease of the glass transition temperature. Solid solutions between SrGe4O9 and BaGe4O9 were found to crystallize in glass containing both SrO and BaO. The effect of the specific surface of the glass samples on devitrification processes has been also pointed out.
