Abstract

Two glass series in the ternary systems K2O-B2O3-SiO2 (KBS) and Na2O-B2O3-SiO2 (NBS) were studied in order to identify the main factors influencing the solubility of iodine. We established that iodine incorporation is strongly linked to the bulk chemistry, i.e. the SiO2/(B2O3+SiO2) molar ratio, and to the physical properties of the glasses, and we assessed three different solubility limits. Iodine in Si-rich glasses has a low solubility (≤1 mol% I) regardless of the alkali ion present. On the contrary, in B-rich glasses, the solubility is five times higher than in Si-rich glasses for Na-glasses, and more than six times higher for K-glasses. The strong dependence of iodine solubility on the bulk chemistry is related to the adaptability of the glass network. Furthermore, our data suggest that iodine is stable with different redox states in the glasses here analyzed.
