Preparation and Characterization of Properties of Oxynitride Glasses and Fibers

Abstract

It has been shown that the substitution of nitrogen for oxygen in oxide glass structures enhances bond strength, which results in glasses having outstanding properties. These oxynitride glasses have higher elastic moduli, tensile strength, hardness, and better corrosion resistance than oxide glasses. Previous work at MTL demonstrated techniques for making significant quantities of these oxynitride glasses. It was also recognized that these glasses had the potential to be formed into glass fibers. Such glass fibers would have potential applications in high-performance composites. Keywords: Oxynitride glass, Glass fibers, Physical properties, Composite materials.
