Abstract
The melt-quenching method has been used to fabricate Na2B4O7 - CdO glass system. The XRD diffractometer procedure was used to check the status of these samples. Inter-ionic distance (Ri) between Cd–Cd, Polaron radius rp, and inter-nuclear distance ri reduced with Cd content due to reducing molar volume. Ionicity Ib decreased and covalent glass character increased as CdO in the glass matrix increases. As the CdO contents increase, the values of Tg, Tc, and TP have been increased. All expected phases are displayed in the XRD patterns. SEM has studied the morphology of the vitreous ceramic. It has been noted that the velocities and elastic modulus of glass-ceramics samples are increased. The structural nature of the developed phase was monitored in spectroscopic FT-IR investigations of the glass-ceramic samples. Mass attenuation Coefficient (μ/ρ) increases with CdO-content increase. The Zeff values increase gradually at higher energy because of X-ray K-edges. Hence, the increase in CdO content can be developed the γ -radiation. According to our data, G7 is the best sample for shielding properties.
