Effect of the relative volume of the conducting phase on the electroconductivity of glasses in the Na2O–B2O3–SiO2 system

Resumo

The effect of the relative volume of the conducting phase on the electroconductivity of phase-separated glasses in the ternary system Na₂O–B₂O₃–SiO₂, whose compositions are on the same glass transition isotherm at 550°C, is investigated. It is demonstrated that the electroconductivity of phase-separated sodium borosilicate glasses does not depend on the relative volume of the conducting phase (within the limits from 0.3 to 0.9) under the condition that its composition invariable.
