6 Minor Components in Silicate Glasses and Melts
Minor components such as TiO2 and P2O5 are important in natural and commercial glasses, including optical fibers and glass wool insulating materials. The structural behavior of P5+ in silicate glasses and melts is fairly well known, whereas that of Ti4+ remains more controversial, perhaps because the oxygen coordination environment surrounding Ti4+ may be a composition‐dependent variable.
6.1 Phosphorus Substitution for Silicon
In P2O5 glass, the P─O bridging bond distance (1.60 Å) is nearly identical to the Si─O distance in SiO2 glass (1.62 Å). Additionally, there is a second double‐bonded and shorter (1.43 Å) P=O bond. These structural features remain for glasses in the P2O5–SiO2 system. In the latter, Si–O–P bridges can also be detected.
Phosphorus in metal oxide silicate and aluminosilicate glasses and melts is dissolved by formation of phosphate (PO4) groups. Their degree of polymerization can be derived from 31P NMR spectra as a function of metal oxide/P2O5 ratio [13] in a way similar to Q n ‐species determinations in metal oxide–SiO2 glasses (see also Chapter 2.4 and Section 3.1). In addition, there are minor contributions from Si─O─P linkages. Mixed alumino‐silico phosphate complexes are more common (Chapter 2.4).
6.2 Multiple Roles of Ti4+
The ionic radius of Ti4+ is nearly twice that of Si4+. It is not surprising, therefore, that Ti4+ in crystalline materials commonly occupies sixfold coordination, whereas Si4+ is in tetrahedral coordination. In glasses and melts, on the other hand, the structural behavior of Ti4+ is more complex. From partial molar volume of TiO2,
Raman and XANES spectroscopic data of SiO2─TiO2 glasses suggest Ti4+ in five‐ and sixfold coordination with oxygen at low concentrations (<3 mol % TiO2), whereas in more concentrated solution, Ti4+ is surrounded by four oxygens. However, it also has been suggested from X‐ray and neutron diffraction data that fourfold coordination dominates at low TiO2 concentrations in alkali silicate glasses, whereas fivefold coordination is more important at higher concentrations. The latter conclusions are in qualitative agreement with inferences drawn from Raman spectra of alkali aluminosilicate glasses. In aluminosilicate glasses, the Al/(Al + Si) ratio also affects the oxygen coordination number around Ti4+.
7 Perspectives
We are poised to advance our understanding of silicate compositions from empirical modeling, based on current understanding of property–structure relationships and simple oxide‐based descriptions, to direct determination of the structure of complex systems. The anionic structural backbone is established. As indicated by the first steps taken in this direction, quantitative understanding of structural variations with composition and intrinsic variables is possible. Moreover, with increased miniaturization and micro‐processing, measurements of glass and melt properties with samples under the conditions of interest are now feasible. It will also be possible to track and characterize structurally the kinetics of transformations, to quantify glass‐forming processes, and, likely, to engineer properties of glasses on the basis of our rapidly advancing enhanced understanding of structure–property relations.
