摘要

This study investigates and compares the structural and thermal properties of six glasses in the Al2O3–CaO–K2O–Li2O–Na2O–SiO2 system with varying Li2O concentration (0–10 mass%). The physicochemical, thermal, and structural characteristics were systematically analyzed. The addition of Li2O resulted in a change in glass density ranging from 2.50 to 2.53 g cm-3 and in a decrease of the molar volume (from 61 to 56 cm3 mol-1), attributed to the formation of non-bridging oxygens (NBO) and a more compact glass structure. X-ray diffraction confirmed that samples up to 6 mass% Li2O remained fully amorphous. Differential thermal analysis revealed a decrease in glass transition temperature (Tg) with increasing Li2O content and the appearance of exothermic crystallization peaks between 600 and 800 °C for glasses containing 8–10 mass% Li2O. Raman spectroscopy confirmed that Li2O acts as a network modifier, breaking Si–O–Si linkages and increasing the intensity of the band at 960 cm−1, corresponding to Si–O stretching vibrations. The study also highlighted the changes in Qn structural units with increasing Li2O concentration, leading to enhanced depolymerization and structural distortion of the silicate network.
