Abstract:Na_2O-CaO-SiO_2 opaque glass containing fluoride and phosphate as opacifer was prepared by melting method and the effect of the composite opacifers on the transmission,crystalline phases,glass characteristics and mechanical properties of Na_2O-CaO-SiO_2 glass were studied by using UV-Vis,DTA,XRD and SEM technologies.The results show that with the addition of fluoride and phosphate,Na_2O-CaO-SiO_2 glass crystallizes irregular grain to opalize glass.The opaque glass containing fluoride and phosphide appears o...
