Abstract
The existing hypotheses on the structure of alkali borate glass were comprehensively analyzed. Their imperfection in explaining the dependences of the properties of the glasses on their composition was noted. Alternative schemes of structural borate complexes which more convincingly explain the characteristics of the change in the properties of this glass are proposed.
