Effect of m(ZnO)/m(B2O3)Mass Ratio on Structure,Properties and Wettability of Low Melting Point Sealing Glass Bi2O3-B2O3-ZnO
Aiming at the performance requirements of vacuum glass sealing,a bismuth-based amorphous lead-free glass powder for vacuum glass sealing was prepared by high temperature melting method.The effects of m(ZnO)/m(B2O3)mass ratio on network structure,characteristic temperature,coefficient of thermal expansion and sealing temperature of Bi2O3-B2O3-ZnO glass were studied by high temperature X-ray diffraction,powder X-ray diffraction,Raman spectroscopy,differential scanning calorimeter,thermal expansion test and scanning electron microscope.The results show that increasing m(ZnO)/m(B2O3)mass ratio can promote the transformation of zinc-oxygen polyhedron from[ZnO4]to[ZnO6],resulting in a decrease in the coefficient of thermal expansion and an increase in the characteristic temperature.When m(Bi2O3)∶m(B2O3)∶m(ZnO)mass ratio is 80∶7∶13,the glass has lower glass transition temperature Tg(371 ℃)and expansion softening temperature Tf(401 ℃),the coefficient of thermal expansion is 9.3 × 10-6 ℃-1,and the sealing temperature is 450 ℃,which can meet the requirements of vacuum glass sealing for low melting point sealing glass powder.
